Anyone got $250,000 laying around?

[TheEnforcer]

Just looking at the current edition of Card Player Magazine and I saw an advertisement for a poker tournament called the Quest of Champions.$250,000 buy-in, 20 World Class players, 1 spot for the WSOP 2005 champ, and 79 open seats. $15 million for 1st place. 10 tables of 10 at a table with the following players slated to go head-to-head on their own table.

Chris Moneymaker vs Sam Farha
Scotty Nguyen vs Phil Ivey
Johhnny Chan vs Erik Seidel
Amir Vahedi vs Jennifer Harmon
Doyle Brunson vs Daniel Negreanu
TJ Cloutier vs Eli Elezra
Phil Hellmuth vs Phill "Unabomber" Laak
David Levi vs Chip Reese
John Juanda vs mel Judah
Annie Duke vs Howrad Lederer in a brother vs sister match up.

Which head to head math-up woul you like to draw as your table from a competitive standpoint and which froma it would be great to play with them standpoint?

Personally from a competitive standpoint even though he won the WSOP I'd rank Moneymaker as the weakest of the bunch. Relatively new to the game compared to anyone else, even the ladies. For sheer entertainment value it would be The Hellmuth-Laak table and for the just to say I played with him on Doyle Brunsons table with Daniel Negraneau.

I loved that show LOL

[RyanLanane]

With the WSOP being a crapshot nowadays this will show us which one of the great players in the world really is deserving of the title. Hell the WSOP is not even at the binion's this year...

I would MUCH rather watch this tournament than the WSOP tourney's
