Jason told me that they have a TV table, I just don't know what channel it is. Usually it is easy to find via Sopcast or any of the other things like it. I haven't searched too much but maybe someone can find something.

Thanks for the heads up on the Wu name change. I was curious about that when I looked at the brackets earlier today.

The Chinese national TV station (CCTV5) was taping it.

But I don't think they're going it show it live because this week they're following Ding Junhui, who has advanced into semi of the World Snooker Championship in England.
 
Thanks big_worm. I should have been able to figure that one out considering last I talked to Jason they were watching Ding play a match live. It's too bad it is being taped. The live coverage in China, Philippines, Taiwan, etc. is very good.

has anyone read Line Kjorsvik's wrod press blog re some players showing up and being informed that they were not in it - and then being forced to have a playoff amongst themselves to see who gets a spot - also if you want to collect prize money you have to open a bank account in China ( Chinese starting to flex economic power )
