Abstract: Abstract We analyze a simple picking game where two players, Left and Right, pick objects (with certain values assigned to the objects) alternatively, with a bidding variation. Instead of picking objects alternatively, players bid to make a move. We derive a Nash equilibrium with respect to the bids of the players and propose algorithms to maximize the utilities of the players.
