{\Large Illustration of the \verb@\bimatrixgame@  macro}

\vskip2ex

Example: $2\times 3$ game with typical strategy names;
note $-1$ written as \verb.{$-1$}., not needed for single 
integer payoffs which can even miss surrounding \verb.{ }..
For the whole game, surrounding \verb.\[ \]. gives displayed
equation.  Slightly larger boxes (5mm instead of 4mm).

\[
\bimatrixgame{5mm}{2}{3}{I}{II}%
{{T}{B}}%
{{l}{c}{r}}
{
\payoffpairs{1}{012}{42{$-1$}}
\payoffpairs{2}{301}{132}
}
\]

\vfill
Example: $4\times 6$ game with strategy names referring to
game tree, and boxes around best-response payoffs.
Naked display without surrounding \verb.\[ \]..
Note \verb.{$\frac{1}{2}$}.\,.
Long diagonal in top left.

Example: zero-sum game, also with 
no players and no diagonal in top left, smaller font.
