Nanonoko World Record

Tuesday, January 10th, 2012

Randy Lew (aka Nanonoko) has set a new world record in volume play in online poker. Although “set” is probably too broad a word in this case. More specifically we should perhaps say “created”, as this was a brand new record so he didnt actually have to beat anything!

What he did was play 23,493 hands over an 8 hour period. He was playing up to 40 tables at a time on Pokerstars. And he made a total profit of $7.65 whilst doing so. Not exactly a profit to set the world alight, but making a profit was in fact part of the volume play being considered a legitimate world record.

Officials from Guinness World Records were there to observe him doing it during the Pokerstars Caribbean Adventure. And nanokoko, who is already very accustomed to multitabling many online poker cash tables, didn’t even take a toilet break. A sure sign of a true grinder!
