Beyond a doubt millions and millions of people are trying to be the next "huge thing" in poker, but here is a short list of four of the more well known "great guys" of poker. Even though "nice" is connected with their names when you are sitting accross the table from them it’s "no more Mr. Nice guy" up until they have removed you out of the game!

Daniel Negreanu

In 2004, his tourney payouts added up to more than 4.4 million dollars and he captured 2 immensely admired awards in the World Series of Poker Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine’s Tournament Player of the Year. In Feb 2006 he was appointed Card Player’s Favourite Poker Player. Daniel even still has the decency to speak with his fans about how they will be able to improve their own game.

Howard Lederer

Called "The Professor" and brother of fellow poker pro Annie Duke. His accomplishments have lead to him making an instructional poker video named "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and co hosting a tournament poker show for Fox. As of 2005, his total life time winnings exceed 2.7 million dollars.

Scotty Nguyen

Scott is 1 of the most active players in poker and between 2000 to 2004 he finished in the money in more than 100 tournaments. He’s noted for saying "yeah baby" during poker matches and also coined the term "that’s poker baby" when referring to a particularly bad defeat. As of 2006, his life time winnings are just about six million dollars.

Chris Ferguson

Chris has earned 5 WSOP titles with two of his wins happening in 2003. Has the nickname "Jesus" because of his characteristic long hair and beard, and is able to throw cards fast enough to cut through pickles and bananas. As of 2005 his total poker tournament winnings exceeded five million dollars.
