Literally huge amounts of people strive to be the next "mega star" in poker, but here is a short rundown on 4 of the more well known "nice players" of the game. Despite the fact that "nice" is associated with their names when you are sitting accross the table from them it’s "no more Mr. Nice guy" until they have removed you out of the game!
Daniel Negreanu
In Two Thousand and Four, his competition winnings added up to in excess of 4.4 million dollars and he came away with two highly admired awards in the World Series of Poker Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine’s Tourney Player of the Year. In Feb Two Thousand and Six he was named Card Player’s Favourite Poker Player. He even still has the decency to speak with his fans about how they will be able to advance their own game.

Scotty Nguyen
Scotty is one of the most active players in poker and between Two Thousand and Two Thousand and Four he placed in the money in excess of one hundred competitions.

As of Two Thousand and Six, his life time earnings are almost six million dollars.
