> equilibrium strategy is guaranteed to not lose,

In my scenario and tournament play. Are you sure?

I would be shocked to learn that there is a Nash equilibrium in multi-player setting, or any kind of strategic stability.

In multi-player you don't have guarantees, but it tends to work well anyway: https://www.science.org/doi/full/10.1126/science.aay2400

> with five copies of Pluribus playing against one professional

Although this configuration is designed to water down the difficulty in multi-player setting.

Pluribus against 2 professionals and 3 randos would better test. Two pros would take turns taking money from the 3 randos and Pluribus would be left behind and confused if it could not read the table.
