Abstract

We investigate the pressing down game and its relation to the Banach Mazur game. In particular we show: consistently, there is a nowhere precipitous normal ideal I on \({\aleph_2}\) such that player nonempty wins the pressing down game of length \({\aleph_1}\) on I even if player empty starts.
