Considereing the
six red snooker championship takes place in Thailand and the Europeans have dominated the Championship, does anyone think an Asian might win this year?

Winning this tournament is Pot Luck.
i know there's a lot been said about Mark Davis being the 6 red expert but there's no reason to suggest potting 6 reds as appose to 15 needs an expert its just coincident so an Asian has as much chance as anyone else.

Who would you pick if you had to pick one Asian player?

Ding
Any particular reason you're wondering about this?
Quite frankly 6 red events are a crap shoot and carry virtually zero prestige. More of an event that gives all reasonably decent players a shot...IMO 6 red events are beneath the notice of any real top player, money would be the only reason they'd attend.

Ouch... I was just asking as like you said its "an event that gives all reasonably decent players a shot". I couldn't help noticing that no Asian has won it.

It's of recent origin, simply a matter of time before an Asian wins it.
That none have won it so far is more of a numbers game than a reflection on the Asian players, skill is less of a factor in 6 red.
