No Joke, millions of people want to be the next "mega star" in poker, but here is a short list of four of the more well known "great players" of the game. Although "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 game!

Daniel Negreanu

In Two Thousand and Four, his tournament winnings amounted to in the region of four and a half million dollars and he came away with two immensely respected awards in the World Series of Poker Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine’s Tourney Player of the Year. In February Two Thousand and Six he was chosen Card Player’s Favourite Poker Player. Daniel even still has the humility to talk with his admirers about how they might improve their own game.

Howard Lederer

Called "The Professor" and sibling of fellow poker pro Annie Duke. His accomplishments have allowed him to make an educational video called "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and also holding a tournament poker show for Fox TV. As of 2005, his total life earnings surpass 2.7 million dollars.

Scotty Nguyen

He’s noted for saying "yeah baby" during poker matches and also credited with the term "that’s poker baby" when alluding to a exceptionally bad defeat. As of Two Thousand and Six, his career earnings are almost six million dollars.

Chris Ferguson

Chris has captured five WSOP titles with two of his successes coming in Two Thousand and Three.
