Thanks - Great Link
Amusing and amazing, mathematicians believed it is self-evident, but they weren't really sure what was true. In other words "it must be true for some space of numbers, possibly the complex numbers, but we just haven't figured out what that space is!"
Actually people have similar confusion about FTO Poker. They believe opponent mistakes are "beneficial" but don't know how to define mistakes. For example, they think you don't benefit from opponent mistakes if your opponent sucks out. It is important to define "mistake" with respect to the same information you use to define "benefits". If you want to assume knowledge of the turn and river then sucking out is never a mistake. If instead you assume only knowledge of the flop then FTOP still holds based on EV.
