haralabos voulgaris needs to die, seriously just insulting gobbo cause he ran good in a few pots that day, im sure haralabos NEVER had a day where he ran really good and NEVER made a move with a draw and hit, only fish do that, he is just such a dick that cant get over the fact that he donked off his chip lead

You guys are huge panzies. Y'all want to have it both ways--being able to boast about how awesome you are, how dominating you play, and how special it is when one of us goes deep in a tournament...you want to be able to say 'ship it' and 'look at me', but you act like nitty pussies whenever anyone says anything that is less than adulatory...We play for big stakes and we don't have to all hold hands and get along throughout...I know that Haralabos has an abrasive personality (and youtube sucks here, so I don't know what he said exactly), but the way you guys react is just babyish and lame.

you should listen to it somewhere, at the end of the video he just sits there personally insulting gobbo, haralabos said something about how he would rather be a midstack at the FT, so the guy asks "would you rather be gus or gobbo or mark karam etc." and he says "well, i'd rather be anyone than gobboboy" and says something about he is "one messed up kid" and something about him playing magic the gathering and dungeons and dragons, then asks if they will edit that part out of the video

I respect the opinion you have shane, but FS is right. I'm not saying that haralobous isn't entilted to his own opinion, but moreso he is a douchebag for judging gobbo on a personal level on an interview viewed by tons of people. I get a vibe off this situation that is kind of high schoolish in how he is picking on gobbo. With gobbo just being 19 and newer to playing poker live on the circut with immediate success might give haralobous a slight motive to put him down for whatever reason. My point is, it's very tasteless and classless to say what he said. I will stand up for anyone who insults a good friend of mine (gobbo) every day of the week. In my eyes, your point of how tempers flare when playing for high stakes and suckouts happen etc. is perfectly agreeable. I just think it's no reason to bash someone who has done nothing personally to haralabos. Could you ever picture yourself calling someone a "messed up kid" after busting out of a tournament shane? Obviously not b/c you are a class act and it's what adds to your character that haraloubos lacks in his.
