SalamAlaikum:

I don't understand this hadith mentioned in the pocket aqeedah...

Psaw: "Allah hates every alim of dunya, every jahil of akhirah." --Al Hakim

Its written under Blessings of Islamic Knowledge.

Jazakallah (in advance)

Wa Alaiki Assalam

Correct me if I'm wrong, but what I thought was that it means that if an a person gains a lot of knowledge of the dunya (and at the time, I thought it meant materialistic things, but I'm not entirely sure), but when it comes to the akhira, he knows nothing.

Perhaps, and Allah (SWT) knows best, this is referring to a person who masters everything about this life with nothing at all for the hereafter, and a person who is completely ignorant of the hereafter. I'd check with Shaykh Yasir in the LOG forum for more details.
