Beyond a doubt huge amounts of individuals strive to be the next "mega star" in poker, but here is a short list of four of the more noteworthy "nice players" of poker. Although "nice" is connected with their names when you are at a poker table it’s "no more Mr. Nice guy" until they have put you out of the game!
Daniel Negreanu
In 2004, his competition winnings added up to more than four and a half million dollars and he came away with two highly admired awards in the WSOP Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine’s Tourney Player of the Year. In February 2006 he was chosen Card Player’s Preferred Poker Player. He still has the humility to speak with his admirers about how they will be able to advance their own game.
Howard Lederer
Called "The Professor" and brother of fellow poker professional Annie Duke. His success has lead to him making an educational video named "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and also hosting a tournament poker show for Fox TV. As of 2005, his complete life winnings surpass 2.7 million dollars.
Scotty Nguyen
Scotty is one of the busiest players in poker and from 2000 and 2004 he finished in the money in excess of 100 events. He is notorious for saying "yeah baby" during poker games and also credited with the term "that’s poker baby" when referring to a particularly bad defeat. As of Two Thousand and Six, his career winnings are almost six million dollars.
Chris Ferguson
Chris has earned five World Series of Poker titles with two of his successes happening in 2003. Chris has the nickname "Jesus" because of his characteristic long hair and beard, and is able to toss playing cards fast enough to slice through bananas and pickles. As of 2005 his total live poker tournament winnings exceeded 5 million dollars.
