Sure, I didn’t mean to imply that there were literally zero situations that could be described as Newcomb-like (though I think that particular example is a questionable fit). I just think they are extremely rare (particularly in a competitive context such as poker or sports).
edit: That example is more like a prisoner’s dilemma where Kate gets to decide her move after seeing Joe’s. Agree that Newcomb’s definitely has similarities with the relatively common PD.
