This DOES have restrictions. Go there now and try and watch something. You will have to verify that you are a customer of an ESPN affiliate.
Good luck!

I followed the link, had to verify I am a customer by finding my cable provider from their online list. I then had to log on to my cable provider online console. Then I was right in.

You're right. I got lucky and am a customer of Comcast/ xfinity.
Do they ask for your account # or something?
Who the heck gets ESPN3? I get ESPN 3D,ESPN,ESPN2,ESPN Classic, ESPN Alt, ESPN U, a zillion fox sports channels, but not ESPN3. My TV\internet provider, CenturyLink\Qwest\DirecTV isn't on the list of allowed providers either.
This is the Govt's fault. The FTC will not allow sky sports to broadcast in the US. They won't allow Party Poker to advertise in the US.
They ruined the IPT by not allowing online gambling, they ruined the Camel tour by not allowing tobacco companies to advertise. This is exactly why there is no pro pool tour in the US.

I've never used ESPN3 or Xfinity and since this isn't live, I got info from the web site. I think I'll have to view it via xfinity web site or at a minimum, sign in with my comcast ID.
This kind of thing is shitty. It seems that every time I want to watch a pool tourney I have to go through a screwed up cycle to view it. When I'm trying to view or buy a product I am told no, we don't want your business. I know a lot of the issues involve the law but a lot of it is poor planning. It may also be that we on AZB are so few that the broadcasters could give a damn.
Since I'm on a B****ing roll, let me throw another problem. Whether or not an event is streamed, there isn't a reason not to have bracket updates somewhere or at least a tourney update posted somewhere.
Fans of pool have to work hard to find pool entertainment. Someone out there should have some good ideas to improve the situation. I wish I could offer some constructive ideas other than complaints.

Now I can watch ESPN3 Live Streamed events.
There is some football going on right now and when the Mosconi Cup starts I should be able to watch it. Hope everyone REGISTERS with WWW.ESPN.COM
and we all get a chance to watch The Mosconi Cup matches LIVE.
Get synced in with the ESPN3 thing before Monday. :wink:

I think this will be one of the most competitive Mosconi Cups in recent history. I'd like to see Earl and Corey on the team too but there just aren't enough spots.
Many Europeans think they are going to smash the US Team. :rotflmao1:
I asked one of my Internet buddies from across the pond that was doing a little fun-jabbing at me this morning, how he liked his crow; baked, broiled or fried.

I don't. I like the look of the American team this time. As long as CJ doesn't show them his "wrists" thread, they will win.
CJ should be able to coach the USA team to victory!
I'm afraid that Dechaine and Shuff will be playing with shafts made out of dogwood.
listen to JoeyA and go get linked up to ESPN3 NOW!!! It's has a couple of unique features to get connected and it will help addressing them ahead of time.
Another way is to find a foreign VPN service (not based in USA, GB, or Ireland) and pay a nominal (or free if you're lucky to find one) fee, then goto the Matchroom Sports link and it will determine that you're not subscribing/viewing from a restricted region and allow you PPV.
