X is an arbitrary number
Suppose the stage game was played for 3 rounds. Consider the following strategy:
Round 1: play C.
Round 2: play C if both players played C in round 1. Otherwise, play E.
Round 3: play D if both players played C in rounds 1 and 2. Otherwise, play E.
Ignore discounting (that is, δ = 1). Suppose that both players pick the strategy above. What condition on x is needed to make this strategy profile a SPNE? Hint: remember to check for possible deviations separately for rounds 1 and 2.
(a) 5 ≥ x
(b) 7 ≥ x
(c) 9 ≥ x
(d) 11 ≥ x
(e) 13 ≥ x
