For Daniel Negreanu there is no doubt whatsoever that the high stakes player Isildur1 can be anyone else than Viktor Blom from Sweden. Well, at least if we should believe what Daniel writes in his latest blog entry - "Top 5 Young Poker Pros of the Future". Daniel praises Isildur1 and call him a legend in the poker world, even though he never played against him.

Quite funny that he writes this as I see Negreanu is becoming somwhat of a player of the past. But these guys have been playing 6-8 years now and are already top players, its like calling the sky blue. I just see this as stupid, in the future they wont be young, so the young players of the future are then middle aged. Im sure what he means is some of the great young players around today are....thoses guys that we all already know.

Haha he looks quite funny at that picture... like he just waked up~ Anyway i hate Annette Oberstad... i just don't like how she looks (yea i like nice girls) and what she talk. No resp for her.
I think tom dwan is now one of the best players, and it is all about time to get in the top five list. I am agree with negreanu´s opinion, dwan could be the best in a couple of years. Good Luck Tomm

this speculants and lucky aggro donks come and go... there are quite a lot of better players out there, with better skills, but with a good Bankroll Management and decent winnings. they will be still playing and earning, even when Mr. durr and Mr. Ilisidur sleeping under a bridge...
------------ and the ugly fat girl, forgot her name, that thinks that poker skill has something to do with her aggroluck style , will drink together with them the cheapest rum available

I think thats a very boring and stupid list!!!
Taking 5 players who already have proven themselves by beating the s**t out of the rest of the table. It is like naming Spain as a good football-team or calling LeBron James a good basketball player.
