Don't get me wrong, I'm sure he's a good player, I'm just not sure he deserves to be idolized like some on AP seem to.

This happens everywhere. When I started playing at True Poker last year, everyone thought Peter Costa wat "The Man". If he was playing there were always 50+ spectators and everyone would fawn over him.

It also happens on these boards and not just with solid pros. Each forum has it's group of people, that can usually say anything and go unchallenged, whether right or wrong.

IT is just the way people are. They crave approval from people that they percieve as "better" than themselves.
