It's no secret that Randy Lew (knows to most as nanonoko) is one of the best online poker players in the world. Well, you can now check "win first live major tournament" on the list of accomplishments for Lew.

Lew just won APPT Macau, defeating almost 600 players on his way to a very nice payday - almost 4M Hong Kong dollars (almost 500K USD)!

Lew defeated Jimmy Pan heads up. Jeff Rossiter (who scored points at the Aussie Millions in January) looked to be in good shape three handed but, losing a major pot to Lew proved to be the end for Rossiter.

Epic Poker League September runner-up David Steicke finished ninth in the event. The man who held the chip lead heading into final day play - Sangeeth Mohan - was unable to maintain his lead and crashed out in 10th place - one spot out of PTPR Points qualification.
