Ian ‘APokerJoker2’ Steinman continues to lead the Nevada rankings

It seems that nothing is going to be able to shake Ian ‘APokerJoker2’ Steinman from the #1 spot in the Nevada Online Poker Rankings. Steinman finds himself sitting on top of the leaderboard for the third straight month and the group of players chasing him did their best in April to close the gap.

Steinman had nine wins, five second place finishes and another nine third place finishes in April. His most impressive day was on Sunday, April 17 when he booked two small wins before finishing second in the $20,000 Guaranteed Weekly.

Last month Steinman had a 500-point lead over his next nearest competitor, but Bobby ‘bcm4924’ McLawhorn closed the gap to just 358 points after having a month to remember.

McLawhorn, who rose from #7 to #2 over the course of the month, had nine wins of his own, including four straight wins over four days from April 13 – April 16. He also took down the $10,000 Guaranteed Sunday Reloaded on April 11 for his single biggest score of the month ($3,696).

Mark “wsopfreezer” Johns maintained his #3 ranking despite winning only two tournaments all month. All told, he cashed 25 times with eight of those being top three finishes.

ChaosTheory’ dropped four #2 to #4 but cashed 29 times in the month, winning twice and finishing third five times. His biggest win of the month came in the $50,000 guaranteed Spring Poker Series Main Event where he finished third for $5,471.

Rounding out the top five this month is David ‘MastAAce08’ Goodman who had five wins on WSOP.com including two $2,000 Guaranteed Nightly events and wins in the $1,500 Guaranteed and $2,500 Guaranteed Nightly events. Goodman also finished sixth in the Spring Poker Series Main Event for $2,153 – his biggest score of the month.

Michael ‘Freakinpoet76’ Mulvania fell out of the top five, slipping to #6. Mulvania cashed 38 times in April, but only found the winner’s circle one time – in a $500 guaranteed event with 69 players. He too had his biggest score of the month in the Spring Poker Series Main Event, where he finished seventh for $1,795.

Paul ‘PaulDewald’ Dewald moved up one spot to #7. His month was highlighted by a win in the WSOP.com Spring Poker Series $10,000 Guaranteed Six Max for $3,737.37. Right behind Dewald is ‘DatDude’, who fell from #5 despite three wins among his 27 cashes in April. ‘Power’ and ‘voff’, who were #9 and #10 respectively last month, swapped spots this month.
