No Joke, huge amounts of individuals want to be the next "mega star" in poker, but here is a short rundown on 4 of the more noteworthy "great guys" of poker. Although "nice" is connected with their names when you are facing them it is "no more Mr. Nice guy" up until they have removed you out of the game!
Daniel Negreanu
In 2004, his tournament earnings 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 Competition Player of the Year. In February Two Thousand and Six he was appointed Card Player’s Preferred Poker Player. He still has the decency to talk with his fans about how they could improve their own game.
Howard Lederer
Called "The Professor" and sibling of fellow poker pro Annie Duke. His accomplishments have allowed him to make an instructional video named "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and co hosting a tournament poker show for Fox. As of 2005, his complete life earnings surpass $2.7 million.
Scotty Nguyen
Scott is 1 of the busiest players in poker and from Two Thousand and Two Thousand and Four he placed in the money in excess of one hundred tournaments. He’s notorious for saying "yeah baby" during poker matches and also coined the phrase "that’s poker baby" when alluding to a exceptionally bad defeat. As of 2006, his life time winnings are just about 6 million dollars.
Chris Ferguson
Chris has captured 5 WSOP titles with two of his successes coming in 2003. Has the alias "Jesus" because of his characteristic long hair and beard, that, and along with his ability to toss cards fast enough to slice through bananas and pickles.
