The worldwide online poker market continues to grow at a healthy but unspectacular pace. According to PokerScout's ACES indicator, online poker traffic is increasing at an annual rate of 11%.

Among the week's noteworthy gainers were Full Tilt Poker, up a whopping 44 percent, PokerStars, up 23 percent and Bodog, up 10 percent.  The biggest losers were iPoker, down a dramatic 35 percent, while OnGame, Microgaming and PartyPoker were each down around 12 percent for the week.

The was the 13th straight week that the top 4 spots remained unchanged.

Online poker traffic fell for the fourth straight week, losing another 1.6% as spring break season continued to take its toll. Once again the decline was broad, with eight of the top 10 sites and networks showing a loss for the week.

PokerSiteScout.com reports 2010 may be the slowest annual growth to date, though traffic was up 11 percent from this time last year.
