I suspect the biggest advantage in a 1-off match between online and live pros would be the experience each had or didn't have playing unknowns.

Online players have made their names and built their bankrolls primarily through outplaying people who were entirely unknown to them at the time.

The live pros have spent much more time playing against a standard line-up. They've built their names and bankrolls besting the same players over and over.

I get the impression that the live pros are not thrilled with playing unknowns who are not mere tourists; that they only begin to open up once they have the hours, days, weeks invested in studying their opposition. The online players have no such luxury.

It doesn't really answer the question but as far as advantages I think this is a big one if we are talking about actually staging a competition between players who have no experience playing one another.

I think 2p2 needs hot or not type of voting system so we can democratically choose the top 20.

I also think that we should open thread for this subject and for all the players in top 20.

why hasn't anyone posted a serious list of say 50-75 players and we voted to see what 2p2 thinks? (bastard and grim should not be options)

because a list of 50-75 of the best would def exclude some of the best and be ridiculously, ridiculously biased. Also we know too little about everything.

I doubt the live players have a good read on who the 20 best live nlhe players are in the world.
