Beyond a doubt millions and millions of players are trying to be the next "mega star" in poker, but here is a short rundown on 4 of the more noteworthy "nice players" of poker. Even though "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 competition!
Daniel Negreanu
In Two Thousand and Four, his competition earnings added up to in excess of four and a half million dollars and he attained 2 highly admired awards in the World Series of Poker Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine’s Tourney Player of the Year. In February 2006 he was named Card Player’s Preferred Poker Player. Daniel even still has the decency to talk with his admirers about how they could boost their own game.
Howard Lederer
Known as "The Professor" and brother of fellow poker pro Annie Duke. His accomplishments have lead to him making an educational video named "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and also holding a tournament poker show for Fox TV. As of Two Thousand and Five, his complete life time earnings exceed 2.7 million dollars.
Scotty Nguyen
Scott is one of the busiest players in poker and from Two Thousand and 2004 he finished in the money in well over 100 events. He is noted for saying "yeah baby" during poker matches and also coined the term "that’s poker baby" when alluding to a especially bad beat. As of 2006, his life time winnings are just about $6 million.
Chris Ferguson
Chris has won 5 WSOP titles with 2 of his successes happening in 2003. Chris has the alias "Jesus" because of his characteristic long hair and beard, along with his ability to throw playing cards quick enough to cut through pickles and bananas. As of Two Thousand and Five his total poker tournament earnings exceeded 5 million dollars.
