It is known that different orders of eliminating dominated strategies in n-person games may yield different reduced games. One gives conditions which guarantee that the reduced game is unique. For finite games, the conditions include the well-known cases of strict dominance, and in a slightly weaker form, of regular dominance for zero sum and similar games
