Literally millions of people strive to be the next "huge thing" in poker, but here is a short rundown on 4 of the more noteworthy "nice guys" of the game. Despite the fact that "nice" is connected with their names when you are sitting accross the table from 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 added up to in excess of 4.4 million dollars and he attained two immensely admired awards in the World Series of Poker Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine’s Competition Player of the Year. In Feb Two Thousand and Six he was chosen Card Player’s Favourite Poker Player. Daniel still has the humility to talk to his admirers about how they will be able to advance their own game.

Howard Lederer

Called "The Professor" and sibling of fellow poker professional Annie Duke. His success has allowed him to make 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 complete life time earnings surpass $2.7 million.

Scotty Nguyen

Scotty is 1 of the most active players in poker and between Two Thousand to Two Thousand and Four he ranked in the money in more than 100 events. He’s noted for saying "yeah baby" throughout poker matches and also coined the phrase "that’s poker baby" when alluding to a particularly bad beat. As of 2006, his life time earnings are almost 6 million dollars.

Chris Ferguson

Chris has captured 5 World Series of Poker titles with two of his wins happening in Two Thousand and Three. Chris has the nickname "Jesus" due to his trademark long hair and beard, that, and along with his ability to throw playing cards quick enough to slice through pickles and bananas. As of Two Thousand and Five his total poker tournament winnings exceeded five million dollars.
