Better prop bet for me?

I offered the following 2 bets to people at my place this weekend.

1) Trivial Pursuit me against 2 guys laying $200 against $100

2) Me against 1 guy laying $300 to $100 and giving 1 piece of my choice

Which bet is better for me? Assume both opponents are of equal skill.

I think option 2.

Put me down for option 2.

And beware: Back when TP was the hottest thing sweeping the nation, and I boasted about how good I was at it, a chick I knew invited me over to play. At that age, I wasn't used to having women invite me over, so I was pretty stoked.

It turns out that at that time, when TP was sweeping the nation, you could buy a book, that had all the Q's and A's. And this woman had nothing better to do at her job but read and re-read this book.

She didn't tell me that until she was about halfway finished running the table. I never got a second turn.

So be careful playing this game for money.

And oh yeah, she didn't get any that night, either.
