Like or hate Eli Elezra ?

Just from reading the few posts I see about him it seems he annoys alot of people or they just dislike him for some reason. IMO I think he seems like a really nice guy and would be a pleasure to have at your table. What's your opinion on him and why ? I've enjoyed watching him play on High Stakes Poker his style is really exciting to watch. Not quite sure why some people are negative towards him ... on that last HSP episode that Anon guy was being an idiot and deserved to be punched.

I agree that he seems like a real nice guy.

They must be anti-semites.

Seriously though, who hates Eli Elezra? He seems like one of the nicest pros around. He is also a big family man. I can't undrstand why people would hate him.

He seems like a nice guy, but that accent would drive me crazy pretty quick.

He is a fish. He has admited as much.

Kinda moody at times, but overall seems like a good guy. I've also been surprised by how much some people on these forums seem to despise him.

I always feel he's out of place on HSP, HUPC and PSS. What has he ever accomplished to gain admission to the invite only circuit? He has also come across as a douche a few times, like when he cracked Antonio's aces with his jacks and commented that Antonio got what he deserved. But I guess he's an ok guy in general.

I actually find his accent to be quite charming. And if he is the fish, he must be ultra-balla b/c he's been in that game for 10+ years.
