No Joke, millions of individuals are trying to be the next "big-time thing" in poker, but here is a short rundown on four of the more noteworthy "nice players" of poker. Granted "nice" is connected with their names when you are facing them it’s "no more Mr. Nice guy" until they have removed you out of the game!

Daniel Negreanu

In 2004, his competition earnings added up to more than four and a half million dollars and he attained two immensely admired awards in the WSOP Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine’s Tournament Player of the Year. In February 2006 he was appointed Card Player’s Preferred Poker Player. Daniel still has the humility to talk with his fans about how they might boost their own game.

Howard Lederer

His accomplishments have lead to him making an educational poker video called "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and also holding a tournament poker show for Fox TV. As of Two Thousand and Five, his total life time earnings surpass $2.7 million.

Scotty Nguyen

As of Two Thousand and Six, his career winnings are almost 6 million dollars.

Chris Ferguson
