The notion of strategically bounding forcings is a natural game-theoretic strengthening of the bounding property for partial orders. In this talk, we will study the basic properties of strategically bounding forcings and talk about indestructibility of MAD families. The motivation for this work is the problem of Roitman. I will talk about results that were obtained with Michael Hrusak, Joerg Brendle and Dilip Raghavan.
