Is there any LIve Streaming on the ongoing World Cup or can you catch Solar Sports here in the U.S. on which medium?
Thanks.
 
Don't know Joey. The Solar Sports website is pretty bare of info. I tried Solar Access website but couldn't connect. ???:confused:???
 
Yep spotted that on a re-read. Thank you though. Now I just gotta figure the time thing out again.

First match starts at 12 noon over there so that is 12 midnight in the east coast or 9 pm pacific time.

However, that link did not show the live matches (only delayed telecast). It did not even show the Philippines vs Thailand match.

We only relied on the live blog updates on this link:

I just watched last several games of Japan vs Slovenia. Japan won 8-7 but the play was sloppy by both teams.

Update - the Taiwan team of Ko/Chang looked really strong in their 8-2 win over Malaysia.

Well at least they showed all the matches live today. I just watched Philippines team B (Orcullo/Gomez) beat Croatia 8 to 4 but they committed a lot of errors and needs more practice in order to go further in this tournament.

This is the schedule of the matches for DAY 3. First match starts at 12 midnight US EST or 9 pm US pacific tonight.

You can also look at the SOLAR SPORTS tv schedule to see what time the live broadcast starts. This morning, it started at 3 am US EST so it might start with the US vs SWEDEN match for DAY 3 tomorrow.

Very nice! Thanks!
 
I tried to watch last night/this morning but wound up watching the end of a basketball game followed by those ditzey women from Real Housewives, finally gave up and got some sleep.:confused:

If you are in LA (central) area, coverage started your time at 2 am to 8 am. As I mentioned earlier, they only aired starting from the 3 pm (their time) match up to the last match which was PI vs Croatia.

Next coverage will probably start again at 2 am tomorrow morning your time, USA vs SWEDEN.
 
Looks like Jasmine and her partner crashed out to Neils Feijen and Huidje See, and according to the live updates, Mika and Marcus looked very strong...maybe the class of the tournament so far. Next up is the Americans. Go Johnny, go Rodney, Go USA!!!
 
Archer/Morris win 8-7 over Sweden. They were up 7-4, but Sweden came back to make it Hill/Hill. Came up dry on break and USA ran out.
 
GO USA.
It looked to me like a lot of balls were skiding. Must be the TV lights. Anyone know what kind of table that was?
I understand that they are trying to kill the soft break with a foul on so many balls have to go over the line, but the foul can happen with a hard break also if balls get kissed at short angles. I think another way to do it is use a speed gun. Say if you break at 20 mph or over it won't matter how many balls go over the line. World championship pool shouldn't be won or lost on a break foul that had plenty of speed but balls get kissed in a way they stay down table or you get a bad rack. Magic rack should be use IMO so both sides get the same rack. Johnnyt
