Zeus does have an upperhand though given his powers are more suited to combat but poseidon does have a tridant weapon. I say tie Zeus is described, along with Athena, as the wisest god. Homer describes him as "the highest and the wisest' and he even gave birth to the goddess of wisdom from his mind. He is definitely not stupid. Poseidon was known to be a very angry god, constantly arguing with other gods over patronship of cities, and was as tempermental as the sea itself. That being said, Zeus is the smarter and wiser of the two.
