So I decided to download bodog and see how the site is, and of course check out what that arrogant Mr. Arieh was up to. To my suprise him and david williams have their own tables at 3/6 NL. Pretty low stakes. I chatted with him a bit and it got pretty confrontational. I then decided to deposit 100 on the site. After 1 day I am 2 for 4 on sit and gos, luckily my two places are 1st. I also played in a 7 dollar 2k guaranteed MTT, which was pretty sweet because the added 400 to prize pool.330 people entered and I was chip leader going into the final table, by about 30,000. Until I lost a 40,000 pot AKs vs 10-10. I finished in 5th place winning 150. I was very dissapointed to say the least. Well anyway I turned my 100 into 300 but I plan to have 600 before I sit down with Josh, this will be quite a match because I of the comments he was making Im sure he will try to run me over. Just won another sit and go the players here arent too good, i plan to be sitting with josh by 8pm tonight. Jay

So you beat Josh at 3/6 and that proves? Josh placed 3rd at the WSOP he's solid.. Am I the only one thinking he's probably just a little bit better than someone building up there 100 dollar roll? :roll:

I'm not sure any high-profile pro takes more abuse than Josh Arieh... and of course, we all know why. The vast majority of people out there have only seen Arieh's fits at the 2004 WSOP and are judging him solely on those (admittedly a tad immature) moments.But that said, this guy is a PLAYER... and I think it would be a big mistake to underestimate his game.I'm curious how your conversation with him got "pretty confrontational." p2

Arieh gets all the fish man..Chaps like FoxwoodsPro alllll day... He's loving it... The funny thing is on WPT he had good table manners but everyone still brings up the ole "WSOP Fits"All I can say is GET OVER IT... I can only imagine his chatbox while hes playing online all the harrassment...

Fish hardly, if you feeel that way come over to bodog, for a little heads up.As for playing Josh I wouldnt mind sitting down with a pro, that I know will go out of his way to bet into me. I am a smart enough to manipulate that to my advantage. However, I am a much better tournament player, like I said over 300 people I was chip leader at final table by 30k. I have also made multiple final tables at Foxwoods, so watch who you call a Fish rookies.J

Everyone gets lucky in a tourney sometimes.Please challenge people to heads up matches. 1 match proves so much.So go sit with a pro. Don't post here. No one really cares if you sit with a pro or not.Can I get a consensus here?- Jordan

If...for whatever reason...you have singled out JA as a soft/desirable target, I wish you best of luck. As I too found his actions at the WSOP somewhat annoying, hearing of him losing might please my inner demons. :twisted: Just make sure you post the results either way !Question though...if 3/6 NL is such low stakes...why not just deposit the 2 grand and play ? :think:

:roll: I've seen him over at Bodog talking to Josh. These "confrontational" exchanges consist of Foxwoodspro asking 101 pointless questions and being a pain in the a$$. Josh ignores him for the most part. I'd love to see Josh play him heads up.....and shut him up. Also...am I the only person that thinks chat from Observers during a game is annoying and rude. If you don't have enough money to sit at the table ...Shut Up.
