Beyond a doubt millions of players are trying to be the next "mega star" in poker, but here is a short list of four of the more well known "nice players" of poker. Despite the fact that "nice" is associated 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 February 2006 he was chosen Card Player’s Favourite Poker Player. Daniel still has the humility to speak to his admirers about how they can advance their own game.
Howard Lederer

His accomplishments have allowed him to make an instructional poker video named "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and also holding a tournament poker show for Fox.

As of 2006, his career earnings are almost 6 million dollars.
Chris Ferguson
