Is there a Dutch Book argument saying that the agent (to avoid book) must have credences defined for all the propositions in the event space? All DB proofs I know assume as much, and I am worried you would have to make controversial assumptions about one gambles with no credence?

Do you need an assumption that strong, or do you just need that the agent could generate such credences when challenged to do so? I feel like I'd always interpreted the demand in that second way. More defensible that way? (Though I, too, may be missing something very basic!)

Replying to @pencechp
Yeah I think often the rationale given is to imagine a kind of forced choice scenario thing - but is there any subjectivist proof that they really ought to generate credences over the whole event space even in absense of somebody holding a gun to their head?
