Abstract: It is shown that if we represent the widely studied class of finite games with mixed extensions by some general abstract system, then the existence of a non-empty phi-stable set follows from Glicksberg's fixed point theorem.

Keywords: Glicksberg; fixed point theorem; phi-stable sets; finite games; mixed extensions.
