Thursday, 23. January 2020
No Joke, millions and millions of individuals strive to be the next "star" in poker, but here is a short list of four of the more well known "charming players" of poker. Despite the fact that "nice" is connected with their names when you are facing them it’s "no more Mr. Nice guy" up until they have put you out of the game!
Daniel Negreanu
In Two Thousand and Four, his tourney winnings amounted to more than 4.4 million dollars and he captured two immensely respected awards in the World Series of Poker Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine’s Competition Player of the Year. In Feb 2006 he was appointed Card Player’s Preferred Poker Player. He still has the humility to speak to his admirers about how they will be able to advance their own game.
Howard Lederer
Referred to as "The Professor" and sibling of fellow poker professional Annie Duke. His achievements have lead to him making an instructional video called "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and co hosting a tournament poker show for Fox. As of 2005, his complete life earnings surpass $2.7 million.
Scotty Nguyen
Scotty is 1 of the busiest players in poker and from 2000 and Two Thousand and Four he ranked in the money in well over one hundred competitions. He is notorious for saying "yeah baby" throughout poker matches and also credited with the phrase "that’s poker baby" when alluding to a particularly bad defeat. As of 2006, his life time winnings are just about 6 million dollars.
Chris Ferguson
Chris has captured five WSOP titles with 2 of his wins coming in 2003. Has the nickname "Jesus" as a result of his characteristic long hair and beard, that, and along with his ability to toss playing cards quick enough to cut through pickles and bananas. As of Two Thousand and Five his total live poker tournament earnings exceeded five million dollars.
