Literally huge amounts of people want to be the next "huge thing" in poker, but here is a short list of 4 of the more famous "nice guys" of poker. Although "nice" is associated with their names when you are at a poker table it’s "no more Mr. Nice guy" up until they have removed you out of the competition!

Daniel Negreanu

In Two Thousand and Four, his tourney payouts amounted to in the region of $4.4 million and he attained two highly admired awards in the WSOP Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine’s Tournament Player of the Year. In Feb 2006 he was named Card Player’s Favourite Poker Player. Daniel even still has the decency to talk with his admirers about how they will be able to boost their own game.

Howard Lederer

Known as "The Professor" and brother of fellow poker pro Annie Duke. His success has allowed him to make an instructional poker video called "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and also holding a tournament poker show for Fox TV. As of 2005, his complete life time earnings surpass $2.7 million.

Scotty Nguyen

Scotty is 1 of the busiest players in professional poker and between 2000 and Two Thousand and Four he placed in the money in well over one hundred events. He is noted for saying "yeah baby" during poker matches and also credited with the term "that’s poker baby" when alluding to a exceptionally bad defeat. As of 2006, his career winnings are almost 6 million dollars.

Chris Ferguson

Chris has captured 5 World Series of Poker titles with two of his successes happening in Two Thousand and Three. Has the nickname "Jesus" as a result of his trademark long hair and beard, that, and along with his ability to toss playing cards fast enough to cut through pickles and bananas.
