    The author considers stochastic games with countable state spaces, unbounded immediate payoff functions and some natural stochastic stability assumptions on the transition structure based on a recent work by \textit{S. P. Meyn} and \textit{R. L. Tweedie} [Ann. Appl. Prob. 4, 981--1011 (1994; Zbl 0812.60059)] and studies the existence of sensitive optimal strategies(overtaking or 1-optimality) in some classes of zero-sum stochastic games. The paper also contains a new equilibrium theorem for a class of ergodic non-zero sum stochastic games.
