Yeah, I'm really curious to find out how much money he won on props. It's going to be like Elezra's win last year, but on a much greater scale.

Also, I think its going to be a bad series for Ivey....2million plus on the lakers, 300K+ to DN, 1 million on dice.

DN also had a prop for fantasy poker...he picked him self and Matasow to win bracelets. I also think he picked lindgren.

Who hates on Daniel? Everyone knows he's a great player, top 5 for live players easyyy.

The hate is usually on the live pros that are actually terrible, not all live pros.

If you read post from the last two years on 2+2 you will see the hate or lack of respect towards his game.

About 50% of 2p2 even though he has changed his views on the skill level of online players, gave the top ones props, and was the only live player who has been willing to print his win / loss stats and earn for the year. It's also been mentioned in the players dealers hate post that he's a good tipper and treats floor staff well. He has pushed for better structures and rule changes for tourneys and overall has been a pretty good ambassador for the game.

Well done Daniel... congrats.

I doubt anyone ripped on his tourny game, but people rip on his cash game skills.

If all professional poker players were like Negreanu, there'd be even more money in poker because no-one would ever mind losing their money to a pro that much. Most other pros seem to fall into the "arrogant douchebag" bracket or the "immobile silent mental calculator", neither of which are that popular with fish.
