Wow this sounds like it will me an amazing tournament!! At the same time it gets me mad they only have tournaments like these over seas and there never shown on TV in the states. I think pool needs to have a big time tournamet to bring it to the public"s eye! as for the winner i find it hard to go against any team that Efren reyes is on!!!!! Go BATA!
 
i pick alex. he's tasted a good victory, and he's been placing well this year.

it's better overseas. there is Z-E-R-O interest here in the states.
 
I don't recall this being in Korea! I'm here in Korea, and I'd be there this weekend if possible. I too think it's in Taiwan. Please let me know for sure.

The truth is, until now pool in America is still condered a gambling game, like poker. The interest is with the gamblers. Until that is changed, you will not see much pool on TV. In Asia and now Europe, it is a big sport. TV sponsors are pouring in to show the game live. That's how big it is. Players are celebrities, signing large deal of sponsorship, and they are nominated for pretigous Athlete of the Year Awards.

Hi Zim,

You guys are letting me down here? This is the fourth year the tournament is being held. It was scheduled earlier this year but was canceled because of the Scars epidemic.

Can't see any (Scars) on Ming Gremlin. You mean SARS but who's counting. Great pics Green guy.
