If that NBC Heads Up Championship was done online, with each player sitting behind a computer screen, would David Sklansky be the clear favorite to win?

No.
You are suggesting that the edge the other players have over him comes purely from physical tells. This is not the case. |

Ed Miller would be the real winner, right?

![]() With all due respect for David, I used to pla with him at the Golden Nugget in the late 70's, 80's and then again at the Bike, have studied all of his fine books for years, he would IMO be one a top favorite I believe but there are many fine short handed players out there. At Paradise there's a guy name of "Durrr" that plays a very strong game for example. I'd love to see such a match, great idea |

The online computer kid from Tilt would most likely be the favorite.

I imagine that the players who have actually been playing and winning playing online shorthanded no limit poker would be a favorite (if such a thing exists) because of their huge advantage in experience playing under this format. And unlike the NBC event, the hands would go so fast that one could get in many more hands per level, negating the variance factor from rising blinds.

I would imagine D'agostino would do quite well.

![]() Sponger....I don't have a clue but I began playing with this guy over a year ago, mosly NL, PL and he's won some serious money online playing shorthanded, 2, 3 handed. He also won a seat (I don't think many were given out)to Paradises' million dollar tourney. This guy CAN play and the shorter (the higher)the better from what I've seen. He's got my respect. Rianna |
