No Joke, huge amounts of individuals want to be the next "big thing" in poker, but here is a short rundown on four of the more noteworthy "charming pros" of the game. 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 competition!
Daniel Negreanu
In 2004, his tournament winnings amounted to more than four and a half million dollars and he came away with two immensely admired awards in the World Series of Poker Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine’s Tourney Player of the Year. In February 2006 he was chosen Card Player’s Favourite Poker Player. He even still has the decency to speak to his admirers about how they could boost their own game.
Howard Lederer
Referred to as "The Professor" and brother of fellow poker professional Annie Duke. His accomplishments have lead to him making an instructional video named "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and also hosting a tournament poker show for Fox TV. As of Two Thousand and Five, his complete life winnings exceed $2.7 million.
Scotty Nguyen
Scott is 1 of the most active players in poker and from Two Thousand to 2004 he ranked in the money in well over one hundred tournaments. He is notorious for saying "yeah baby" during poker matches and also credited with the phrase "that’s poker baby" when referring to a exceptionally bad defeat. As of 2006, his life time earnings are almost 6 million dollars.
Chris Ferguson
Chris has earned five World Series of Poker titles with two of his successes coming in 2003. Has the nickname "Jesus" because of his trademark long hair and beard, and is able to toss playing cards fast enough to slice through bananas and pickles. As of Two Thousand and Five his total poker tourney earnings exceeded $5 million.
