CHINA have won the 2007 PartyPoker.net World Cup of Pool.
In one of the best finals ever, Li He-wen and Fu Jian-bo clinched a dramatic 11-10 victory over the Finnish duo of Mika Immonen and Markus Juva.
At 10-6, China looked like becoming comfortable winners but they gifted Finland a route back into the match as they did not take a number of glorious opportunities.

The Finnish side did not play a safety shot well enough and Fu Jian-bo held his nerve to sink the final 9-ball as China became World Cup winners to scoop the $60,000 top
