Here's some stats from the past (year-placed) in the money in the main event:

Group 1:
Dan Harrington 87-6th, 95-1st, 96-17th, 03-3rd, 04-4th
Chris Ferguson 00-1st, 04-26th
John Phan 04-31st
Phil Hellmuth 88-33rd, 89-1st, 01-5th, 03-27th
Barry Greenstein 00-31st, 03-49th
Johnny Chan 87-1st, 88-1st, 89-2nd
Tuan Le (no money in main event, two WPT 1st's in last 7 months)
Michael Mizrachi (no money in main event, 6 in the money this year in other WSOP events)
John Juanda (no money in main event)
Antonio Esfandiari (no money in main event)

Group 2:
Doyle Brunson 76-1st, 77-1st, 80-2nd, 82-4th, 83-3rd, 04-53rd
Mike Matusow 01-6th, 04-87th
Scotty Nguyen 98-1st, 03-18th
Howard Lederer 87-5th, 03-19th
Daniel Negreanu 01-11th
Erik Seidel 88-2nd, 99-4th
Ted Forrest (no money in main event)
Erick Lindgren (no money in main event)
Layne Flack (no money in main event)
Scott Fischman (no money in main event)

What if neither team finishes in the money? I'd be suprised if two people on the same team make it in the money.

I'll root for group 1.
