Literally millions and millions of people want to be the next "big-time thing" in poker, but here is a short list of 4 of the more famous "nice pros" of the game. Although "nice" is connected with their names when you are playing them it’s "no more Mr. Nice guy" until they have removed you out of the game!

Daniel Negreanu

In Two Thousand and Four, his tourney payouts added up to more than $4.4 million and he came away with 2 immensely admired awards in the WSOP Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine’s Competition Player of the Year. In February 2006 he was named Card Player’s Preferred Poker Player. Daniel even still has the decency to talk with his fans about how they can boost their own game.

Howard Lederer

Called "The Professor" and brother of fellow poker professional Annie Duke. His achievements have lead to him making an instructional video called "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and co holding a tournament poker show for Fox. As of 2005, his total life earnings exceed $2.7 million.

Scotty Nguyen

Scott is 1 of the most active players in poker and from Two Thousand and 2004 he finished in the money in excess of one hundred events. He’s noted for saying "yeah baby" during poker matches and also credited with the phrase "that’s poker baby" when referring to a particularly bad loss. As of Two Thousand and Six, his life time earnings are just about $6 million.

Chris Ferguson

Chris has earned five World Series of Poker titles with two of his wins happening in 2003. Has the alias "Jesus" as a result of his characteristic long hair and beard, along with his ability to throw playing cards quick enough to slice through bananas and pickles.
