Put $p=\mathrm{Pr}(T)$ and $q=\mathrm{Pr}(L)$, so the complementary probabilities are $1-p$ and $1-q$. All four expressions are the row player's expected payoff, including those indexed by a column action. Direct expected value calculations giveThe column player's expected payoff is the negative of the row player's because this is a zero-sum game.
