Literally huge amounts of individuals are trying to be the next "mega star" in poker, but here is a short rundown on four of the more noteworthy "nice guys" of the game. Granted "nice" is connected with their names when you are playing them it is "no more Mr. Nice guy" up until they have removed you out of the game!
