Literally millions of individuals are trying to be the next "mega star" in poker, but here is a short list of four of the more noteworthy "nice guys" of poker. Although "nice" is connected with their names when you are at a poker table it’s "no more Mr. Nice guy" up until they have removed you out of the game!
Daniel Negreanu
In Two Thousand and Four, his tournament payouts amounted to in excess of four and a half million dollars and he attained two highly admired awards in the World Series of Poker Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine’s Tournament Player of the Year. In February 2006 he was appointed Card Player’s Preferred Poker Player. Daniel still has the humility to talk with his fans about how they will be able to boost their own game.
Howard Lederer
Called "The Professor" and sibling of fellow poker professional Annie Duke. His achievements have lead to him making an instructional poker video called "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and co holding a tournament poker show for Fox. As of 2005, his complete life earnings surpass $2.7 million.
Scotty Nguyen
Scott is one of the most active players in poker and between Two Thousand to 2004 he ranked in the money in well over one hundred events. He’s noted for saying "yeah baby" throughout poker matches and also credited with the phrase "that’s poker baby" when referring to a especially bad loss. As of Two Thousand and Six, his career winnings are almost $6 million.
Chris Ferguson
Chris has earned 5 WSOP titles with two of his wins coming in 2003. Chris has the alias "Jesus" as a result of his trademark long hair and beard, and is able to throw cards fast enough to cut through pickles and bananas. As of Two Thousand and Five his total live poker tourney earnings exceeded five million dollars.
