Good Randomized Sequential Probability Forecasting is Always Possible

Vladimir Vovk, Glenn R. Shafer · Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B (Statistical Methodology) · 2005

This result, an easy consequence of von Neumann's minimax theorem, simplifies and generalizes work by earlier researchers.
