    A mixed strategy may be strictly dominated even though it assigns positive probability to pure strategies that are not even weakly dominated. Pure strategy s I is strictly dominated for player I if there exists such that inequality 1. Holds with weak inequality, and the inequality is strict for at least one strategy. For all mixed strategies I as well, because player i's payoff when his opponents play mixed strategies is a convex combination of his payoffs when opponents play pure strategies.
