2+2ers are good bets!

[deankeaton7]

After debating with one of my friends, I told him that I could pick a team of 30 poker players that would win more money in the ME than he could. Moreover, he could pick his team first (providing I got Raymer...the only 2p2er that he would know), and he would barely recognize a name on my list. I picked almost exclusively internet players, and my team won by a large margin.
A quick rundown of the team.

1). Greg Raymer
2). Matt "jacksup" Matros
3). Mike "anakinso" Goodman
4). Eric "rizen" Lynch
5). Darrel "gigabet" Dicken
6). Carl "colson10" Olson
7). Steve "stevejpa" Paul-Ambrose
8). Shane "shaniac" Schleger
9). Peter "nordberg" feldman
10). Dr. Bill Chen
11). Cliff "johny bax" Josephy
12). Chris Bell
13). Jordan "imsolucky0" Morgan
14). David Singer
15). Eric "sheets" Haber
16). Alan Goehring
17). Prahlad "" Friedman
18). Mark Seif
19). Patrik Antonius
20). Fabrice Soulier
21). Nath "nath" Pizzolatto
22). Alex "yahtzem" Jacob
23). Mike Matusow
24). Victor Ramdin
25). Joe Hachem
26). Jason "strassa" Strasser
27). Blair Rodman
28). Carlos Mortensen
29). Nick "thetakeover" Schulman
30). Dustin "Neverwin" Woolf

how can you have "won" already if he has cunningham lefT?

[schnoodleC]

You are in good shape but he does have Alan Cunningham so you aren't a lock to win it yet.

[durron597]

Most of the reason why you are currently winning is because you have Bill Chen on there, who isn't 2+2 (well, he has some posts but not really)

It's for the ME.

[pocketjesuits]

I'd take your friend's team, although i'd take your team at +105 odds.

[deankeaton7]

the bet was done on a point basis, where finishing first would net 873 points, and finishing last ITM would net 1 point. Even though he has cunningham, even if prahlad and rizen finished 27, 26, and cunningham won, I would still win.

And this competition was for the ME only.

I tried to pick as many 2+2er's as I could, including the pros. Therefore I picked goehring, bill chen, blair rodman, over the lisandros (almost picked) of the world.

Also, apologies to a few of the other 2p2ers that I would have picked, had I known their names.
