Has Anyone else taken a liking to Josh Arieh?

I bet this has already been a topic probably, but for the record i havent seen it only the topic about him bieng an A-hole. i think the poker table is a place where you should be able to trash talk all you want. thats why its a competition. I for one dont think its SMART to trash talk, but its OK to do so all you want. I think hes a perfectly nice guy in real life and he's just really competetive, and i like fire in the belly of a player.Also, he seems to make great reads and play with a lot of confidence.

I just went back and re-read his Cardplayer interview. He may not be as bad of a guy as everyone thinks. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

I had heard about him before the WSOP and talked to him on UB so I knew he wasnt as bad as it seemed on TV.

Does it really matter? Greg has no problem with what was said about him and if Greg can forgive it seems the rest of us should have no problem with him.

I put Josh in with Mike and Phil Hellmuth, players who have very big egos. And to be honest, he seems to have a pretty good game.

He strikes me as massively insecure.

id put him with phil (but hes not quite that bad and not quite that good), but not with mike matusow. I hate Mike.

[ohkanada]

Yeah I agree that Mikes mouth gets him in more trouble.

And I agree of the 3, Hellmuth is the best followed by Josh.

Hate? Pretty strong words for someone whom you have undoubtedly never met.
