What do you think about Eli Elezra?

Short and simple question - what do you think about Eli Elezra? Is he a good player ? Which game is his best? What is his main occupation outside of poker?

I am watching him every week at HSP but I must admit that he is still unknown player in comparison to other ones.

he's rich from other things than poker. he might win money playing shorthanded but as you can see from HSP he's just a spewing fish in a full ring NL game

he has plenty of money, prob the richest of the guys appering until now at HSP.

read in a magazine that Antonius said he was the biggest fish of the regulars in the Big game at bellagio (except maybe for guy liberte) if I remember correctly.

Wow. Patrik would say that in a magazine? Seems strange.

Isn't Guy Liberte the guy who started Cirque du Soleil?? If so, HE'S by far the richest guy playing in the big game.

people who are rich enough to play in them without winning are very rare.

people who are good enough to play in them and win are even more rare.

it would be a huge coincidence if anyone who could afford to lose in those games... didn't.

He's a gambler, kinda in the same mold as Sammy Farha. He's a mixed game specialist and plays in the big game at the Bellagio. I think he owns a bunch of businesses on the strip in Las Vegas.

He won a WPT event in the '04 (Mirage I think) and a bracelet at the WSOP this year (Stud 8/better).

Here's a link to his bio: http://www.cardplayer.com/players/bio/Eli-Elezra/1957

Seems like a man of integrity

I like him. Who cares if he's a fish, he's fun to watch.
