Mark ‘wsopfreezer’ Johns jumped three spots to take the top spot of the Nevada Online Poker Rankings

Mark ‘wsopfreezer’ Johns had a monster month of August to take over the top spot in the Nevada Online Poker Rankings. He leapfrogged Bobby ‘bcm4924’ McLawhorn to claim the pole position from McLawhorn, who held it for the month of July.

Johns crushed August to the tune of 43 cashes, with most of them being final table appearances and winning six of them. On the first day of the month, Johns cashed five times, all of which were final tables. He never looked back from there. His biggest cash of the month came from winning the $3,000 guaranteed nightly with rebuys and add-ons for $2,190 on August 5.

Overall, Johns cashed for over $10,000 in August, which brought his career earnings to $192,765 on WSOP.com alone.

McLawhorn dropped one spot to second and Ian ‘APokerJoker2’ Steinman held the third spot for the second straight month.

Steinman is a fixture on the leaderboard and August was just another example of why he’s consistently at the top. Steinman cashed a massive 73 times with 10 wins. Unfortunately for Steinman, most of his deep runs and wins came in smaller buy-in events which carried less points.

His biggest cash of the month was a fourth place finish in the $3,000 guaranteed nightly with rebuys and add-ons on WSOP.com. He netted $562 for his finish and was four-handed with two other PocketFives members – ur_a_towel and Stimey661.

ChaosTheory and David ‘MastAAce08’ Goodman each moved up a spot to round out the top half of the rankings, sitting fourth and fifth, respectively.

Both ChaosTheory and Goodman put in most of his volume on Americas Cardroom. ChaosTheory won the $20,000 guaratneed Phat Big10 for $3,962, while Goodman’s lone win came on WSOP.com. Goodman took down the $3,000 guaranteed nightly with rebuys and add-ons for $1,657. Goodman’s biggest cash was on another network, taking second in the $30,000 guaranteed Phat Big10 for $3,825.

CloverSparklesFartShovels made one of the biggest jumps on the list. After making his debut in the rankings last month in ninth, he jumped up three spots to sixth. Like everybody else on the list, he had a solid month. He took down six tournaments on WSOP.com

Daniel ‘voff’ Devau held the seventh position for the second straight month. He had four, four-figure cashes on WSOP.com, including two wins, but he was unable to move up in the rankings.

Datdude dropped two spots to eighth and the two newcomers this month round out the top 10. James ‘VintageATL’ Piccolo and Jed ‘JCHAK’ Hoffman move into the ninth and tenth spots, respectively. Piccolo has a steady stream of cashes to his name, but picked up the volume in August and earned 32 cashes to push him into the top 10.
