I think that a lot will depend on the hamster's background and personality but in five years of owning Chinese fairly exclusively, I've yet to have one that I couldn't tame. I will agree that some might require a little bit of patience and persistence as well as an open mind to different methods of taming.

I've actually found that the Chineseys I've had have been easier to tame than my sister's Russian Hybrid ever was. She was extremely territorial and was rather prone to nibbling when being held so it really does show that personality is just as much responsible as the species.
