I haven't seen it yet, but I'm very sad MKP didn't perform. I honestly don't like either of these players because I'm not a fan of how they play Terran, aka, lots of marine micro. I thought it was going to be an intriguing series though since they have arguably the best marine micro of anyone.
@Donos: If you know a thing or two about SC2 and if you are willing to stay up till 2 or 3 am. You can always watch replays of the previous matches, but I always try to watch them live when I can.
Where does a budding Starcraft II fan go for Starcraft II GSL action? Secondly, do you guys know any good "basic advice" pages for Starcraft beginners?
Not too surprising. MVP is on par or better at bio-micro compared to MKP. And on top of that, MVP is a monster at every other aspect of Terran. MKP looked completely lost during the series when MVP was having none of the cute tricks that helped him win against Jinro or Nada.
@DrBeardface: You could try youtube and watch these strategies, but updates probably made them useless now:

All I can tell you is that these things listed below are what you'll run into in bronze: Protoss players WILL go air or try to cannon rush you. Zergs will six pool or go mass muta (aka air.) Terrans: 50% will go siege tanks and try to upgrade as fast as possible or will go banshees (again, air only clocked.)
You'll need to learn to counter these. My problem so far against TvT (I play Terran) is that I dont use my mobility when faced against siege tanks and I I don't scan my oppent at the right time. If I could work on these, I would be able to counter their build (use medvac drops and pick ups against siege and build anti air turrets, a viking, and a raven against banshees.)
Also, http://www.gomtv.net/ Thats where you go for GSL.
