He will never reach or surpass Phil Ivey . He is not that good . Even with his adaptation to nowadays standards , which demands use and study of analytical software and programmes , GTO strategies programs etc , even now he is not that good . He is an old school poker player , very good indeed , maybe one of the best , but not the best .

if we look at the titles won, then Daniel Negreanu is not far from reaching him, if we look at them as poker players, for me Daniel is number one, he plays poker with enjoyment, the others are too stressed

he has had poorer results in recent years, but with this bracelet it seems that he is slowly recovering. I hope he will win many awards in his career from now on, as he deserves it.

earlier there were many members who followed big poker tournaments, maybe because of annual vacations so they don't comment or it's always been like this, I think the forum was active earlier we will see later if there will be any difference

This player is an icon of this card game, everyone knows him and we feel happy when he is happy, and when he is sad too, now he is very happy for what he has achieved this year, surely more things will come for him.

There are some events with very high buy in , 20k , 50k or more . High rollers , high buy in games for the elite of poker pros or the whales with the big money , big ego but not so much of skill . In a field of 50 -100 players , odds to get a bracelet are higher than if you compete against 500 or 1.000 or many thousands of poker players .
Having said that , I expect Daniel to win more in the next year . If he wants to win more than ten bracelets , become maybe one of the top 3 in the bracelets' leaderboard . It seems that winning a bracelet is sth that interests him a lot . Soo.....
