Beyond a doubt millions and millions of individuals are trying to be the next "huge thing" in poker, but here is a short list of four of the more well known "nice players" 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 put you out of the competition!

Daniel Negreanu

In Two Thousand and Four, his competition payouts added up to more than 4.4 million dollars and he won two immensely admired awards in the World Series of Poker Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine's Competition Player of the Year. In Feb 2006 he was named Card Player's Preferred Poker Player. Daniel even still has the decency to speak with his fans about how they might advance their own game.

Howard Lederer

Called "The Professor" and brother of fellow poker pro Annie Duke. His achievements have lead to him making an instructional video named "Secrets of No Limit Hold'em" and also holding a tournament poker show for Fox TV. As of 2005, his total life earnings exceed 2.7 million dollars.

Scotty Nguyen

Scotty is one of the busiest players in poker and from 2000 and Two Thousand and Four he finished in the money in well over one hundred competitions. He's notorious for saying "yeah baby" throughout poker matches and also coined the phrase "that's poker baby" when alluding to a especially bad beat. As of 2006, his life time winnings are just about $6 million.

Chris Ferguson

Chris has earned five WSOP titles with 2 of his wins happening in 2003. Has the nickname "Jesus" because of his characteristic long hair and beard, that, and along with his ability to toss cards quick enough to slice through pickles and bananas. As of Two Thousand and Five his total poker tourney earnings exceeded 5 million dollars.
