I think the gambling section needs to be better explained, especially the gambling terminology used. Why does the bookie need to pay out $200 no matter what happens? I don't get it. -- Zeno of Elea 04:22, 23 July 2005 (UTC)
I would be happy to see some etimological background too. As I know the "dutch whatever" structure is used in english to say that something is of low quality, while this is definitely not true to dutch book. One really nice game (in the general sense, not economic) with this double meaning of "dutch" is in one of Matthew Rabin's articles; something like "several professors wrote dutch chapters, but none of them has a dutch book".
I tried to reflect the clarification given by Henrygb in the table, since I also had no gambling background and had to take a little time to figure out what was being said. Hopefully this is correct (there was also an error in one of the stakes, I believe - see changes) 83.103.77.181 ( talk) 11:23, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
As far as I studied economics I encounter only the economists who argued that transitive preferences are not present. Shouldn't the section pointed out who, if anyone, states such consumer exists? Uzytkownik ( talk) 21:35, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
This information should be included in the article and cited appropriately. 128.195.57.188 ( talk) 22:21, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
The article could do a better job of separating:
* The concept of a Dutch Book * The Dutch Book Argument of anthropic probability — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.180.183.140 ( talk) 08:53, 30 January 2016 (UTC)
Clearly needed. Merged article should talk about how Dutch books imply:
The material can be taken from Leonard Savage's books on the foundations of decision theory and probability. Closed Limelike Curves ( talk) 18:39, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
