Which HSP players could beat 5/10 NL online?

[Whitewash]

This list is not going to be entirely fair since we're going to judge some players just based on a few hands we've seen on HSP this season, but I can't resist. Here's the question: which of these players do you think could beat 5/10 NL if there was to be a bet on them beating it over a large sample size (at 6 max)?

-This is going to assume that the bet has inspired the players to give it their all, not just intentionally donk around.
-Assume that they play at random 5/10 NL tables on Full Tilt and Pokerstars.

I tried including the question for a few players who this would generate the most discussion over.

Antonio Esfandiari seriously needs to stop playing cash game poker he sucks, he's better suited to be a tournament player.

is that so...

what makes you say that? I thought he has played a lot of his hands very well on HSP.

from railing antonio on UB 2-3 years ago, I think he would crush online poker today. He would consistently crush 10-25 HU, vs anyone. I watched maybe 20-30 sessions of him playing HU, and he would pretty much go through opponents w/ ease, winning 5-8 buy ins in a session and then logging off.

Like every time. I had mad respect for him b/c of this. I cant recall what his image looks like on HSP though.

One of my favorite moments when moving up through stakes was beating Antonio for 3 buyins in a HU session. That being said he was a tough, aggressive player and probably better than me at the time. I definitely think he can beat 5/10 now, maybe 10/20, possibly even 25/50.

At least in the format of High Stakes Poker, Antonio is one of the first players I'd want to take the action of.

You forgot the "who cares?" option.

I would guess no one cares, least of all the people listed in the poll.
