Literally millions and millions of individuals want to be the next "big-time thing" in poker, but here is a short list of 4 of the more well known "charming pros" of poker. Although "nice" is associated with their names when you are facing them it’s "no more Mr. Nice guy" up until they have removed you out of the competition!
Daniel Negreanu
In 2004, his tournament earnings amounted to more than 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 named Card Player’s Preferred Poker Player. Daniel even still has the humility to talk to his admirers about how they will be able to improve their own game.
Howard Lederer
Referred to as "The Professor" and brother of fellow poker professional Annie Duke. His success has allowed him to make an instructional poker video called "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and also hosting a tournament poker show for Fox. As of Two Thousand and Five, his total life time winnings surpass $2.7 million.
Scotty Nguyen
Scott is one of the busiest players in poker and from Two Thousand and Two Thousand and Four he ranked in the money in excess of 100 tournaments. He is notorious for saying "yeah baby" during poker matches and also coined the phrase "that’s poker baby" when referring to a exceptionally bad loss. As of Two Thousand and Six, his life time earnings are almost $6 million.
Chris Ferguson
Chris has captured 5 World Series of Poker titles with 2 of his successes coming in Two Thousand and Three. Has the nickname "Jesus" because of his trademark long hair and beard, that, and along with his ability to throw playing cards quick enough to cut through bananas and pickles.
