No Joke, millions and millions of people are trying to be the next "mega star" in poker, but here is a short list of 4 of the more well known "great players" of the game. Granted "nice" is connected with their names when you are playing them it is "no more Mr. Nice guy" until they have removed you out of the game!
Daniel Negreanu
In Two Thousand and Four, his tournament payouts amounted to more than 4.4 million dollars and he won two immensely admired awards in the WSOP Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine’s Tourney Player of the Year. In Feb 2006 he was named Card Player’s Favourite Poker Player. Daniel still has the decency to talk to his admirers about how they might improve their own game.
Howard Lederer

Chris Ferguson
