He likes talking about not needing Korean experience/practice, yet he doesn't want to show the world he can compete with the true best.
He has talked about going to Korea for another visit.
Still, I can understand perfectly why there are foreigners that don't want to live in Korea. There is more to life than proving that you can "compete with the true best" to some random nerds on a message board.

I really hope RuFF gets into the pools. That would be fucking hilarious.

Do both players in round 6 get into the pools since there are 2 spots open in each pool?

Nope, 4 groups, 8 spots, 8 open brackets. The winner of each bracket gets in. Don't know where they get put though.

Well I get that too. But being the best can translate to winning more tournaments, meaning more money.

Think about this for a minute - has Naniwa become the best player ever by going to Korea?
What has he won since going there?

JYP's PvT has been improving, he took 2 games off Puma who's the king of TvP.
Well, that was during the 1-1-1 era, but still.

Stephano doesn't like pressure.
1. If he fails at any tourney at sc2, he can always say "meh, I wasn't really that serious anyway". It's a ready made excuse.
2. If he doesn't go to Korea for a long time in the first place, he can't really fail there. People will sing his praises and say "if he had gone he would own I know it".
I love his play, I love the man, I am so so disappointed at his decision. He's so ready, he's so skilled, why doesn't he go  His results thus are clouded with uncertainty by fans and haters alike

true true. he can make plenty of money, giving Europeans hope at their local tournaments and then failing only at the last moment when he runs into a Korean. Idra style.

Is that live update right, Jinro 2-0'ed Idra?

No it's a typo. It says round 4 so it should be Jinro 2-0 TLO
Jinro plays IdrA tomorrow, probably at 11AM EDT when the matches start, so 9 hours from now
