North America will be represented by its first homegrown pro Andy Liu, and its most recent, Eric Lui. |

Mateusz Surma 1p from Poland should also be playing in the Ing cup as that was the reward for coming 2nd in the European Professional Go Championship 2016 (Fan Hui came first and also got Ing cup place, Ilya Shikshin came 3rd and got Chunlan Cup place). (If you count the players trout listed from Asia there are 26 which includes the winner/runner-up so there is space for 28+2-26=4 from NA/Europe.) |

Disappointed to see no Iyama Yuta again! Deja vu ... viewtopic.php?p=99822#p99822 His 3rd Judan title match game is on the 14th April and 4th if he needs it is 20th so that is a scheduling conflict, though I'd expect him to win the 3rd game (and thus get the simultaneous big 7) so the 4th game wouldn't be needed. |

Thanks. So NA and EU each gets two players. I got confused by the original post saying "round of 28" - actually there are 30 players in total. |

I once scribed a game between Andy Liu and Eric Lui. After an amazingly fast ko at the end which I could barely follow, I gave up my scribing aspirations. I am amazed and pleased that Europe and North America get two reps each. I am sure there must be grumbling about that somewhere though. Much like when the seventeenth best European team complains about missing the football World Cup when some "clearly inferior" Central American country qualifies. |

I'm so glad we have these forums. There's literally no where else to find information about pairings for this tournament. |

Racist Tygem not broadcasting the games with Japanese (except Cho U-Ke Jie) |

| Post subject: | Re: 8th Ing Cup |
I'd mostly agree with Solomon's predictions but think I would go for the Chinese not Korean players in a few of those close match ups: Tuo over Weon, maybe Gu over Park, that's basically even to me, and Lian slightly over Kim. |

Rather dramatic, unbelievable moment but I haven't time to focus on the games

All the games are on wbaduk. Mi Yuting already beat Fan Hui, Fan made a centre that was too small. Having seen the games maybe I would revise my prediction to slightly favour Weon Seongjin, but the other games going as expected. Eric Lui seems to be putting up a decent fight. |

Huge victory for Korea, just saw Won Seongjin win over Tuo Jiaxi. 12/14 in my predictions, Chen Yaoye losing to Kono Rin which is kind of an upset, and Lin Lixiang winning over Na Hyun which I think was not too surprising. |

Only upsets so far are Kono Rin beating Chen Yaoye. goratings.org put that at 33% probability. Glad to see one Japanese player survive. Seemed to me Chen didn't have enough big ko threats and once white's group lived it was hard. Kono also used his aji on the left side nicely. And then Lin Lixiang (who I've never heard of) beat Na Hyun which was at 17%. Solomon wrote: Huge victory for Korea, just saw Won Seongjin win over Tuo Jiaxi. Indeed, the reason I went slightly for Lian Xiao was not that he was 4 points higher rated by goratings, but that he was 3-0 in previous games against Kim. Weon was 2-1 against Tuo but 70 points lower on goratings so a good win for him. Park beating Gu I suppose should be expected as he is in good form lately (63 points higher) but Gu Li has more history of winning big tournaments and I was hoping he could revive his form for the Ing. |
