No Korean invites so far? What a load of crap. Looks like a crowd pleaser/viewership pick instead of actual top talent... just fill the rest with Dimaga, Huk, Mana or Naniwa.

Yeah if they only invite 1 Korean, I would call that tokenism. It's only going to perpetuate the notion that IPL is an unfriendly league to Koreans. Hopefully, they wipe away the stigma and invite three Koreans.

I love how you are telling them what to do (sarcasm), the Koreans are most likely going to take most of the qualifier spots anyways.

Also if you want the Koreans so much why don't you start your own tourny instead of being so butthurt when there is going to be Koreans.

I ain't butthurt. The invited players are just weak preys for the Koreans. I'm just calling a spade, a spade.

The Koreans are simply taking longer then those we already have existing relationships with to confirm with us. Don't read too much into it!

I'm guessing the invites are for people who have had success in previous IPLs. If they want to get in they should qualify. The final spots should surely be for Mana and Nerchio.

Koreans weren't allowed to participate in the IPL1 + IPL2 qualifiers. So, how can you base it on success when Koreans weren't even given a chance?

Am I getting trolled??

1) A crowd pleaser/viewership pick would be KOREANS!
2) 2/8 Koreans is still good, considering there will be quite a bit qualifying or flying. A weekend for a shot at at $30k? Yes please.
3) Dimaga, Huk, and Naniwa are actually really good....?

This has probably already been asked a lot, but, this isn't at the real Caesars Palace is it?
I mean did Caesar actually live there?

No, it's just a casino building/convention center/entertainment place that they decided to name it Caesar's palace. It's in the U.S. Caesar is from the Italy area.

It seems like there is some confusion on how the seeding affects the championship bracket, believe me it helps them a lot. I'll try to get a graphic up explaining exactly how it goes early this week!
