To clarify: Danneman wasn't knocking Lederer... he was just excited about pulling off a big bluff, and was telling his friend about it.

Josh was, well, flat out rude from time to time in 2004. It's kind of his schtick at the table, but as he told me when I asked him about it, ESPN showed it pretty much how it was. Outside the tables, Josh is a very nice guy...

And I believe his exact words about Raymer were "Bust this fat fuck."

The best was because Arieh had just been knocked out in 3rd place, then Raymer went up to him and told him good game, you were my toughest opponent, josh thanks him etc, then get goes over the williams and gives him a pound and says "bust this (bleeped out)" I always thought it was motherfucker, but fat fuck makes sense too and TP was there lol

As for what he did, basically everyone's already said it. He was kind of a dick at the table and criticized peoples play....sometimes justly --( i.e when David Williams called 1/3 his stack with 55 then checked dark ... Arieh couldnt believe it he's like "you dark check?!?!?!?" then went on a speech afterwards how williams called 1/3 his stack with two 5s) and sometimes unjustly "you put all your money in with JUST a pair of jacks?!?" (hey its better than the garbage you play arieh, you play 52o!)

Overall a good personality to have at the table, and from what I've seen of him, a good poker player who isn't afraid to gamble

I thought the reason many thought/think he's a total prick is becasue of and I quote from Wikipedia.

"However, he is also well-known for a televised incident late in the 2004 WSOP main event where he lambasted Harry "Wise Owl" Demetriou, who had put him all-in, after Arieh luckily hit a flush to win. It is generally considered a serious breach of etiquette to mock the loser of a hand, especially for such a critical pot, and Arieh apologized after busting Demetriou out on the next hand."

Yup. I qualified for the Main Even in November.

You're WAY behind.
