"In order for a negotiating side's leverage to work in their favor, the threats or promises they put forth must be perceived as credible by the opposing group.  . . .  A non-credible threat is a term used in game theory and economics to describe a threat in a sequential game that a rational player would not actually carry out, because it would not be in his best interest to do so."
