Phil Ivey if its a cash game... Raymer if its tourney play... Relative value of chips in tournament play is skewed. The difference of winning +%100 v. losing -%100 are not valued the same. Raymer seems to be very good at understanding this better than almost anyone else in the game, as per his 2004 win and top 25 repeat the year later. Whereas in cash games over a period of time +100 and -100% are valued equally. Thus over a "long run" scenario Ivey has an edge, imo.

On another note if the competition was "Who can win the MOST money if they are both sitting in the same 20/40 NL game" I would take Ivey in a heartbeat.
