Abstract

This is a Spanish version. Maxco and Gambit are bidding for an oil lease. Gambit will soon know the value of the lease with some precision. Maxco is bidding with no such precise information. The objective is to get the student to think hard about how Gambit will bid before deciding on Maxco's strategy.
