Saturday, 27. April 2019
No Joke, millions and millions of individuals strive to be the next "big thing" in poker, but here is a short list of 4 of the more noteworthy "great players" of poker. Granted "nice" is associated with their names when you are playing them it’s "no more Mr. Nice guy" up until they have put you out of the competition!
Daniel Negreanu
In 2004, his competition earnings amounted to in the region of $4.4 million and he won two immensely respected awards in the WSOP Player of the Year and Cardplayer Magazine’s Tourney Player of the Year. In Feb 2006 he was chosen Card Player’s Preferred Poker Player. Daniel still has the humility to talk with his admirers about how they might boost their own game.
Howard Lederer
Called "The Professor" and sibling of fellow poker professional Annie Duke. His success has allowed him to make an instructional video named "Secrets of No Limit Hold’em" and co hosting a tournament poker show for Fox TV. As of 2005, his complete life earnings surpass $2.7 million.
Scotty Nguyen
Scotty is one of the busiest players in poker and between 2000 to 2004 he placed in the money in more than one hundred events. He is noted for saying "yeah baby" throughout poker matches and also credited with the phrase "that’s poker baby" when alluding to a especially bad defeat. As of 2006, his career earnings are almost $6 million.
Chris Ferguson
Chris has won five WSOP titles with 2 of his wins happening in Two Thousand and Three. Has the alias "Jesus" as a result of his trademark long hair and beard, and is able to throw cards fast enough to slice through bananas and pickles. As of 2005 his total poker tourney earnings exceeded five million dollars.
