Johannson's poker interest was developed seriously in 2004. He was another player that played mostly cash games under various names on different sites so it's hard to track his results, but Iain "TillerMaN" Girdwood indicated he played as high as $50/$100 No Limit Hold'em. While Johansson hasn't concentrated on live play, he does have some results. He came in second in the 2006 Swedish Open Poker Championship SKr 3,000 No Limit Hold'em event for $11,108. His best finish at the World Series of Poker was in 2007 where he finished in 538th place in the Main Event for $25,101. Johannson finished fourth in the 2011 Nordic Masters of Poker SKr 5,000 NLHE tournament in Stockholm for $15k. He was born January 7th, 1982 in Sweden and now lives in Sliema, Malta.
