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 famous "nice pros" of the game. Granted "nice" is connected with their names when you are playing them it’s "no more Mr. Nice guy" until they have put you out of the competition!
Daniel Negreanu
In Two Thousand and Four, his competition winnings amounted to in excess of four and a half million dollars and he attained two highly respected awards in the World Series of Poker Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine’s Tournament Player of the Year. In Feb Two Thousand and Six he was chosen Card Player’s Favourite Poker Player. He still has the humility to talk to his fans about how they can advance 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 called "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and also hosting a tournament poker show for Fox. As of Two Thousand and Five, his total life earnings exceed 2.7 million dollars.
Scotty Nguyen
Scott is one of the busiest players in poker and from Two Thousand to 2004 he finished in the money in well over one hundred events. He’s noted for saying "yeah baby" throughout poker games and also coined the term "that’s poker baby" when referring to a exceptionally bad loss. As of 2006, his life time earnings are almost 6 million dollars.
Chris Ferguson
Chris has captured five WSOP titles with two of his wins happening in 2003. Chris has the nickname "Jesus" because of his characteristic long hair and beard, along with his ability to throw playing cards quick enough to cut through bananas and pickles.
