LIVE STREAM: WPA Players Championship, Apr 12-19, 12 p.m. pacific time

Is there a streaming match schedule somewhere? I was looking for it yesterday and even messaged CSI without a reply. Their loss since I never ended up buying the stream. With the stream being so expensive, a schedule should be provided.

I'm a little weary because my last streaming purchase was a disaster. I bought UpState Al's stream of the expo pro event. I wanted to watch Aranas in the semi's and finals. I buy the stream to find out they are streaming the losers side match instead of the winner's side semi final. Then, in the finals, they spent about 60% of the time streaming the woman's final which was a complete blow out. Definitely not buying anymore UpState Al's streams...

The SBE was streamed by Upstate Al. The brackets for the qualifier showed table 20 as stream table, and provided some what of a schedule.

At the SBE on the last day everything was rushed, and I felt like no consideration was given to stream purchasers. Everything was done by 530, and B and A final as well as women played at same time. The B side final was played instead of A final and B side final has Thorsten in it who had been on stream 3 times already. In defense of Upstate Al, he mentioned several time he had to speak to director to get good matches on the stream. So looks like director was calling the streaming matches.

Yes, Upstate Al, not Big Truck. Sorry, big mistake on my part. I'll edit my post above.

In his defense, he did offer me a refund. But it wasn't about the money, I just want to see the match. Apparently we all missed a very exciting semi final match between Aranas and Faraon.

That's the main reason I didn't buy the SBE stream this year. That has happened in the past when they had the men and women playing at the same time. Ends up being a lot of better matches that never make it on the streaming table. The TD couldn't give a crap.

They still haven't updated Saturday's brackets, not to mention Sunday. You know why? Quote CSI "It's hard."

The 4 who qualified on Sunday: Alshaheen, Ellerman, Ignacio, Malaj.

Some who aren't in yet, with just one day left: Faraon, De Luna, Styer, Foldes, Jones, Owen, Chinakhov

Vilmos, Ruslan, and Deluna all on the same bracket so only 1 can make it in the last qualifier. That's all fargo 775+.
 
The bracket can be split into 4 groups. Let's say top group is Group 1 and bottom is Group 4, then toughest groups are 2 and 4 with 3 players above Fargo 750
It is D-Day and there will be lots of shaky hands :D

first match of Day 4 is disappointing matchup between 2 relative unknowns
Luu Minh v Chris Alexander

Next match is bit more interesting Tyler Styer v Vilmos Foldes
:D

Hello, Nostroke. The top four from each qualifier advance to Stage 2. Therefore, play stops when the top four are determined. It appears that all of the brackets are completed. If that is incorrect, please let us know. Thank you and thanks for the question.
 
Wow, Jeff de Luna finally makes it to stage 2 knocking out Chinakhov on his 4th decider match after losing 3 over past3 days
Faraon also makes it after his 3rd decider match
Chang Jung Lin’s mentor Fu Che Wei grabs the 3rd spot of the day
Final 4th spot in Stage 2 is between Marc Vidal v Kuo Szu Ting , the only female player
:smile:
 
Wow, only femsle player , Kuo Szu Ting upsets Marc Vidal in decider match to grab last spot for Stage 2 :grin:

I told you so! Ha Ha. There are a couple of dozen (or more) just like her in China and Taiwan that play a ball (or less) under Siming Chen and are a threat to any male player in a tournament match.
