Default How do some players consistantly winning at NL playing garbage?

I have been successful at NL for about 6 months and have tightened up preflop as Ive learned and become more agressive post flop.I play on several sites that dont use pt, but on pt i have a 17.5 vpip,5.45% PFR and agression numbers of 2.54 1.63 and 1.56 on the flop turn and river respectively. and have won 7.7 BB/100 over 70,000 hands.( These stats are only for Party and the Cryptos, I also play at UB, Bodog, and Paradise)

However I play on Bodog and see Josh Arieh playing tons of flops and always winning. When Ive seen him on TV his post flop play is exceptional and he makes great reads. But Ive seen him calling 6x BB raises with 36s King 2 78 and such trash.

How does he manage to play such garbage, play so many hands and win so consistantly? What is a great player like me doing that a decent player like me is not?
