Pro Poker Player Nicknames

It's a fact that pro poker players have been playing online poker for years. Until Full Tilt Poker, all of those pros generally went incognito. Even at Full Tilt you still have a lot of pro players who play accounts that do not give away their real names. I suspect "joe buttons" would get a lot more action and a lot less respect than "Phil Ivey" for example! What follows is an extensive list of well known online and offline pros. If you're playing high stakes, or just railbirding, you'll probably see these guys tossing the big chips around at a poker site near you.
