Yeah, he sucks.
IMO - He isn't near Ivey or Dwan's level. Which is why he generally loses in the big televised games, because he is always playing against the best of the best. You put 99.9999% of poker players in a lineup with Dwan, Ivey, Antonius.. they will lose.
That being said, that thought process is really bad. I cringe whenever I hear somebody justifying a raise with "to see where I'm at."
Okay, I'm going to address your post here.
5 WSOP Bracelets. Good point. However, Only 1 of them is in NL holdem (and it's in the last 2 months). The other 4 are in Limit holdem, SHOE, and Pot limit holdem.
2 WPT Titles. Good point. However, both of them were in 2004. Back when everyone was completely awful at NL holdem.
I don't think that Daniel sucks, far from it, but that thought process was completely awful.
