No Joke, huge amounts of people want to be the next "mega star" in poker, but here is a short list of 4 of the more well known "nice guys" of poker. Even though "nice" is connected with their names when you are at a poker table it is "no more Mr. Nice guy" until they have removed you out of the competition!

Daniel Negreanu

In Two Thousand and Four, his tournament winnings added up to in the region of four and a half million dollars and he captured two immensely respected 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 even still has the humility to speak to his fans about how they will be able to advance their own game.

Howard Lederer

As of 2006, his life time earnings are just about 6 million dollars.

Chris Ferguson
