Wanna be rich, go with Paul... I'm surprise the odds are going with WLQ, actually it's the same with Ma Long.

It is true that pips out rubber has many disadvantages, but the on the last paragragh... "Imagine taking part in an F1 race with a 'street' sports car... and winning: You wouldn't be called cheater: you would be called HERO". I just love that!! How can that be cheating....

It does sound good mate. It's a good start for you to gage where you are at the moment. When you get better and your confidence grow, you can always upgrade your rubbers 1st.

Hi Zoglug, warm welcome. Better late than never I suppose. hehe Well, years ago, back in the late 80's, I used to play with tackiness chop. Excellent rubber I might say. They now have Chop II. My advice since you've stop serious playing for a bit now, the sensible thing for you to do is to find...

That is true Wiwa, it's definitely possible! Paul can cause an upset there. It would be good for the British TT fraternity.

QFinal : Ma Long vs Jun Mizutani PAUL DRINKHALL vs Xu Xin Ma Lin vs Ovtcharov Wang Liqin vs ZJK QF Wang Liqin has to role back the years to win against ZJK...I hope he does. WLQ wins. Ovtcharov just might clinch it against Ma Lin. Ovtcharov wins. Paul played the match of his life and beat Xu...

Thanx bro, I would've tried to go to ITTF to check, but I'm in the office at the moment. Too lazy, and going into a meeting at the moment. Thanx again buddy!! :D

Do you know if it's going to broadcast live on ITTF?

I found this article in The Tactical Table Tennis Website. It's about pips out game. Long pips have always been controversial rubbers. This are some of the points made by players that complain on long pips, and my comments on each point: They allow EASY control of spiny balls: True, but note...

Thanx plasma. These are indeed excellent photos. I don't know where you get these, but keep it coming bro...:D

Yup, I can't remember if ma Long met ZJK in a major tournament lately, since Ma Long secured the no1 position. If ZJK is seeded 2nd, and they're divided into 2 groups (like the tennis finals currently playing in London O2), they will meet each other in the semis or finals. That would be...

It's hard to omit Zjk, especially when his confidence is sky high at the moment. But it could also be his down fall. Ma Long is always a good bet, though he hasn't been as successful as ZJK, I think he has a point to prove. I am sure he is pumped, and he just might clinched it this time around...

I am 42 years old, and I used to play all sort of sports at high levels. Aside from TT; football, rugby and tennis paid heavy tolls on my body, especially my knees and back. Since then I've stopped playing football and rugby, but still plays competitively in tennis and TT. I wish I can really...

Plasma...you are just outstanding!! Brilliant!!

That's rough buddy hahaha talk about getting good night sleep before a tournament huh. Another day, another tournament perhaps.

Honestly, I think both wood and WRB would be good for heavy top spin loops. Both offers superb control and feel.

I should think so as this will be an ITTF sanctioned matches...

Now, that is a great idea. It's similar to tennis in a way. Two players from two different countries. TT can do this if becomes a full professional sports.

Can you just imagine a geezer came along and take a good swipe at the ball, and shouted "Cho!!!" out loud...hahaha I wonder what will happen to him afterwards...

You know what would be great, Der_Etche?? You posting some video clips of the tournament. hahaha
