yeah right. this guys taken care of every detail, he tells Ani he's a Sith Lord, lets him leave. Knows SOMEBODY is gonna come try to stop him, so he'd plan for the worst: Yoda or Mace. You tellin' me he really would just take a gamble that big when he ALWAYS has everything under control? I just really don't understand why this isn't more accepted. He ALWAYS has it all under control. WHY would he leave something THIS CRUCIAL up to CHANCE?

I agree that he planned on Mace coming. What he didn't plan on was Mace kicking his ass. Simple foreshadowing to the fact that arrogance would be his downfall.
exactly that was why he was so eager on leaving the fight against yoda
" if so powerfull in the darkide you are....then why leave????"
lol

i don't think yoda wants to keep pushing it, not on the account of sids either, i would just assume sids will have his security buffed up from now on

You Fool,
Who ran the Galaxy for 30 years??? Yes we all know the Sith did after episode 3 to 6
Who ran the Galaxy for 1000 years before? Yoda and the Jedi.. before Phantom Menace to Revenge of the Sith.
Try thinking, the Sith didnt Rule for jack..
Yoda didn't necessarily hide from Sidious because he was less powerful, simply because Sidious had the whole empire at his side. Yoda wouldn't stand a chance, would he? Yoda sent Luke after Sidious because he knew Sidious would let him past all those stormtroopers and imperial officers, leading him right into the emperor's throne room. Why? Because he knew Luke was both talented and relatively inexperienced. Judging by the fact that he so easily seduced Anakin to the dark side, he thought he could easily do it to Luke as well. But he was clearly wrong. His overconfidence got the better of him, and that eventually led to his downfall. So to Sidious, Luke is a potential ally. With Luke at his side, think about how screwed the Rebels would be. But what does Yoda mean to Sidious? An old enemy whom he wanted to kill from the start. There's no way he would try to turn Yoda to the darkside cause it clearly will never work. So if Yoda were to show himself after ROTS, Sidious' first motives would doubtlessly be to have him killed, therefore he's not gonna let him past all those troopers. There wouldn't be a chance left for Yoda to face off Sidious one on one anymore.

Did mace win or was palpy faking that he was losing
Heres the thing, George isnt the kind of writer to insinuate. If there is somthing he wants you to know, he spoon feeds it to you.
Personally i believe if palpitine was trying to persuade anakin to the dark side. I believe the best action he could have done would be to conquer the most famous jedi for light saber skills. Seriously, if you were trying to convince someone of the powers of the dark side....why would you intentionally lose. However, i guess mace windu wasnt really that good of a jedi though, if he couldnt sense the turmoil in anakin.
