Beyond a doubt huge amounts of people strive to be the next "mega star" in poker, but here is a short list of four of the more well known "nice pros" of the game. Granted "nice" is connected with their names when you are playing them it is "no more Mr. Nice guy" up until they have put you out of the game!
Daniel Negreanu
In Two Thousand and Four, his tournament winnings added up to more than 4.4 million dollars and he captured 2 immensely respected awards in the WSOP 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 decency to talk to his fans about how they might advance their own game.
Howard Lederer
Known as "The Professor" and sibling of fellow poker professional Annie Duke. His accomplishments have lead to him making an instructional poker video named "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and also holding a tournament poker show for Fox. As of Two Thousand and Five, his complete life earnings surpass $2.7 million.
Scotty Nguyen
Scotty is 1 of the most active players in professional poker and between 2000 to 2004 he ranked in the money in more than 100 events. He’s noted for saying "yeah baby" throughout poker games and also coined the phrase "that’s poker baby" when alluding to a particularly bad beat. As of 2006, his career earnings are just about six million dollars.
Chris Ferguson
Chris has earned five WSOP titles with two of his successes happening in 2003. Chris has the alias "Jesus" because of his trademark long hair and beard, and is able to throw playing cards fast enough to cut through pickles and bananas. As of Two Thousand and Five his total poker tourney earnings exceeded 5 million dollars.
