Abstract
While many types of non-measurable sets are never -winning in the sense of Schmidt's game, we show that this is not the case for certain Vitali sets. Our main theorems show that for certain values of one can construct a Vitali set which is -winning, while for other values of every Vitali set is -losing. We also investigate the -Schmidt game for various other types of pathological sets, highlighting their differences from Vitali sets.
