Abstract
- The Brandenburger-Keisler paradox is a self-referential paradox in epistemic game theory which can be viewed as a two-person version of Russell's Paradox. Yablo's Paradox, according to its author, is a non-self referential paradox, which created a significant impact. This paper gives a Yabloesque, non-self-referential paradox for infinitary players within the context of epistemic game theory. The new paradox advances both the Brandenburger-Keisler and Yablo results. Additionally, the paper constructs a paraconsistent model satisfying the paradoxical statement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
