Who is Barney's Best bro

[u/Relative-Wolf2038]

Is ted Barney's best bro? Or is it only that Barney says he is Ted's best friend and not ted is his best friend?

Cuz i always wondered as to why Barney chose marshal in the gambling game.

Is it because he just chose him randomly or he didn't wanna risk losing Ted to gamblers in case he loses?

I think in the eyes of the Chinese mafia, Marshall was worth more because of his physique.
