Randy Lew Eliminated in 7th Place (HKD$792,000)
Two years ago, Team Online's Randy Lew won the 2011 PokerStars.net Asia Pacific Poker Tour Macau Main Event for HKD$3,772,000. Lew had his sights set on a second title in as many years here in Macau, but his dreams were recently crushed by Jonathan Depa.
It happened when Yifan Zheng opened for 16,000 under the gun and Jonathan Depa, who was next to act, made the call. Lew then moved all in for his last 110,000 from the hijack, Zheng folded, and Depa made the call.

It was the exact same situation as Kampanatsanyakorn's elimination an hour early, and once again both players would end up with a full house after the board ran out . Lew's was inconsequential though as he had hit it on the river after drawing dead on the turn. Lew exited to a nice round of applause and took home HKD$792,000 for his seventh-place finish.
