The PokerStars Pro Randy "nanonoko" Lew took a new world record during PokerStars Caribbean Adventure in Bahams. In a corner of the tournament room Lew sat and played not less than 40 cash game tables (PokerStars had to raise the table limit) on PokerStars, and in eight hours he managed to play 23,493 hands - about 2936 hands per hour - or just about 0.8 hands per second.

Winning $7,5 isn’t much, but I really would like to know how much points did he made with this record? It must have been enough to give him a rakeback higher than his profit at the tables. This Sunday I had 4 tables opened and I was starting to shake a bit, no knowing where to look at but I tried a little bit difficult. I had three cash games and a tourney! Does that gives me the chance to run for a record too ?

Very nice win and I think that the world record in itself is the biggest accomplishment, the most tables I have had on my PC is 7 and I found that quite comfortable, if I ever decide to have duakl monitors like they use then maybe I will try 10 LOL just for a bit of fun.

LOL record, 7.5$ earned and >22000 FTP 1VPP probably is = 1FPP or 4000$ for PS if he recive more than 1 FPP per VPP then min 800$ profit for PS.Amazing VIVA la PS probably Nanoko will by aprox 300$ for FPP (Tornament money) Bravo for nanoko but i sugest Giness next time to set level for example starting chips and 36 tables and 10 bye in for each table than count earnings.In this record he play some tables on high level to upswing previous downswings.I dont talk about Nanoko skils thats is obvuious Amazing.

ok let's think about this from this point: he was down about $1200, so he played badly, cards didn't run etc. now what is the worst decision you can make when things are going this way? of course raise the limit you are playing- of course it was a different story knowing that this was done just because of the record attempt, but generally speaking this is not a very good way of playing to advertise.

Everyone can laugh, but I never heard of this guy until the other day in a thread that was posted by afellow Mobster. Incredible to recently learn that this guy exist then read something like this. That's flying through hands on electronic / digital poker. Quick thought process to make decisions so fast. By the time the cards are showing he is already hitting the buttons. I mean you have to decide what cards to hold, plus deal. WOW!

About the record. Bloom play with Berstein12 yesterday 12hours and 5000hands on 4-6 tables...that is amazing Up and Down -200000 to + 300000 that is for the Guineiss
I suppose you are required to play all tables at the same stakes? Otherwise you could concentrate on one high stakes table, and just fold all the other tables, with very low stakes...

I saw a video where he plays at two monitors somewhere in the lobby of the live tourney in Bahamas lol. Some day a player sits with a poker gameboy at a live poker table and wins a sattelite for the next live tourney
but I tried a little bit difficult. I had three cash games and a tourney! Does that gives me the chance to run for a record too 
probably Nanoko will by aprox 300$ for FPP (Tornament money) Bravo for nanoko but i sugest Giness next time to set level for example starting chips and 36 tables and 10 bye in for each table than count earnings.In this record he play some tables on high level to upswing previous downswings.I dont talk about Nanoko skils thats is obvuious Amazing.
