[K14N2]

[waile]

one of LCW's boogeyman is gone...

[waile]

pls cheer for our golden WD pair atm...

[abedeng]

C'mon Wong/Chin, C'mon Han Li.

[waile]

who is han li??

[madbad]

Han Li about to create another shock, up 20-13 on ZL. abedeng, did you buy lottery tickets? :D:D

[george@chongwei]

wow, han li on game point now.!
good!
hahaha

[waile]

ok... pls forgive my ignorance... i know who han li now...

[george@chongwei]

Han Li about to create another shock, up 20-13 on ZL. abedeng, did you buy lottery tickets? :D:D
i bought it!:):D:Dfyi

[lin_xingfang]

so,the fact that DPY beat TH...


only Candra Wijaya (also with Tony Gunawan if u want to count him too) is the only INA players in this tourney..they also perhaps will face a tough wall againts Fu/Cai in QF (if they can win the match today againts NR/AC)

[george@chongwei]

well , han li won the 1st set!!
haha:)

[george@chongwei]

chen jin vs chen hong now..
i expect a tough fight here:rolleyes::cool:

[limsy]

one of LCW's boogeyman is gone...

this one i agree...:p

[george@chongwei]

wow, zhu lin leading 3-0 in the 2nd set now..

[abedeng]

Han Li about to create another shock, up 20-13 on ZL. abedeng, did you buy lottery tickets? :D:D

I told u, I never gamble with money .... besides, it's too early to tell if she can win it.

[K14N2]

one more mistake not to paw for han li :crying:

bad day, bad day

[waile]

ok... our WD pair got thru... with relative ease too... beating chinese girls was something we dreamt of in the past... right now... they are even beating them with ease... amazing feat...

[madbad]

Han Li battles back to 3-4, but ZL extends to 6-3

[madbad]

ok... our WD pair got thru... with relative ease too... beating chinese girls was something we dreamt of in the past... right now... they are even beating them with ease... amazing feat...

You can't generalize like that. You have to look at the quality of the opposition

[robin7]

abedeng will be the happiest PAWer if Han Li pulls out an upset here!

[madbad]

Has ZL woken up? Pulling away at 9-3 over the surprising Han Li. Or is it another staged Chinese drama?

[madbad]

abedeng will be the happiest PAWer if Han Li pulls out an upset here!

And you would be the 2nd happiest ;):D

[Xinguy]

[quote=george@chongwei;1030020]wow, zhu lin leading 3-0 in the 2nd set now..
what's the score now for chen jin n chen hong match:confused:

[waile]

You can't generalize like that. You have to look at the quality of the opposition

i aint generalizing... dont get me wrong. in the past, we couldnt have been able to even beat this particular chinese pair they beat today. let alone with ease. u cant deny that. to be chosen to play for china in a tournament in china is not an easy thing to do. they r of a certain quality too. the gist of what im trying to say is we have come a long way and the malaysian girls are doing well atm... let me bask or tumpang bask in this glory... i dont know how long it will last...:D

[badMania]

ok... our WD pair got thru... with relative ease too... beating chinese girls was something we dreamt of in the past... right now... they are even beating them with ease... amazing feat...

What a statement :eek: One question though...who the heck is Deng Yuting/Tan Jinghua :o:rolleyes::cool: ???

The statement will be valid ONLY if the MAS pair is able to beat pairs like Cheng Shu/Zhao Yunlei or Du Jing/Yu Yang.

[madbad]

Han Li getting spanked around like a naughty girl for having the gall to make ZL look bad in the 1st game. ZL 17-4 HL

[badMania]

i aint generalizing... dont get me wrong. in the past, we couldnt have been able to even beat this particular chinese pair they beat today. let alone with ease. u cant deny that. to be chosen to play for china in a tournament in china is not an easy thing to do. they r of a certain quality too. the gist of what im trying to say is we have come a long way and the malaysian girls are doing well atm... let me bask or tumpang bask in this glory... i dont know how long it will last...:D

Hello....I don't think the Chinese pair is even ranked right now :eek::confused::o;):(:cool: ????

[robin7]

Han Li was asked to lose after winning the 1st game... LOL...

[george@chongwei]

[quote=george@chongwei;1030020]wow, zhu lin leading 3-0 in the 2nd set now..
what's the score now for chen jin n chen hong match:confused:
chen jin game point 20-11:rolleyes:
i expect a close 1 though:(

[george@chongwei]

looks like han li gonna lost this 2nd set.

[madbad]

Wow, CJ handled CH with ease in the 1st game, 21-11 :eek:

[george@chongwei]

19-7 zhu lin now...

[madbad]

Told you the HL v ZL match was scripted for drama

[abedeng]

The CAT's PAW is not looking so sharp, with Chen Hong going down meekly in the 1st game.

[waile]

Hello....I don't think the Chinese pair is even ranked right now :eek::confused::o;):(:cool: ????

come on... u think any tom, dick and harry can don china flag and represent them in tournaments? they may not be ranked... but im sure they r good...

[george@chongwei]

wow.chen hong 5-1 up in the 2nd set now..ow

[robin7]

Never mind. Enjoy the match....

[abedeng]

The CAT licks her PAW and Chen Hong starts the 2nd game strongly, 7-2

[madbad]

WTF, CH up 8-2 now??!! Not more thespianism from these two :cool:

[badMania]

Pan Pan/Tian Qing are falling down the pecking order in WD. I still remember Tian Qing was sitting behind me last year during the CHN SS Final in Guangzhou. Right now, pairs like Cheng Shu/Zhao Yunlei, Wang Siyun/Zhang Jinkang, Ma Jin/Wang Xiaoli, and Xie Jing/Zhong Qianxin have more prospects than them.

IF Wong Pei Tty/Chin Ee Hui are to reach the Final of the China SS, they have to beat two of the pairs listed above: Xie Jing/Zhong Qianxin tomorrow and possibly Wang Siyun/Zhang Jinkang in the SF.

[waile]

Told you the HL v ZL match was scripted for drama

and we all know who the director is...:D

[george@chongwei]

wow..chen hong 9-3 now..
looks good to take this 2nd set

[abedeng]

Han Li raises my PAW hopes with a 2-0 lead in the decider.

[george@chongwei]

HL 2-0 up now:):):)

[madbad]

Now Han Li leads 2-0. The crazy world of CHN badminton... :cool:

[eRa@에라]

come on chen hong!! must beat chen jin :D:D

[waile]

Never mind. Enjoy the match....

supporter of TH eh? hehe... sorry then...

[abedeng]

Zhu Lin starts to act to the script, 1-3

[abedeng]

But Han Li shows dramatic finesse, 4-1

[george@chongwei]

come on chen hong!! must beat chen jin :D:D
yeah, camon!!:p
11-5 now..interval.

[badMania]

Nah...Taufik is not even my favorite INA player ;) Yes, it's a shocking loss, but, no big deal abt that either :p

But, considering Taufik has beaten Lee Chong Wei twice recently, I think MAS fans should be even more disappointed than INA fans ;)

[waile]

come on chen hong!! must beat chen jin :D:D

another drama by LYB??:p this is becoming like the Astro On Demand series edi...

[me-ow]

anybody know how old is Du Pengyu??

[george@chongwei]

gogogo chen hong:D:p

[abedeng]

ZL shows an academy award winning performance, 4-4.

[madbad]

Look for a late "dramatic" comeback by ZL to snatch the match from the jaws of defeat:rolleyes::rolleyes:

[george@chongwei]

camon CH!
dont stuck at 11 points:rolleyes:

[waile]

Nah...Taufik is not even my favorite INA player ;) Yes, it's a shocking loss, but, no big deal abt that either :p

But, considering Taufik has beaten Lee Chong Wei twice recently, I think MAS fans should be even more disappointed than INA fans ;)

oh... ure a hong kong fan then?

[george@chongwei]

5 all now between HL AND ZL

[abedeng]

But, considering Taufik has beaten Lee Chong Wei twice recently, I think MAS fans should be even more disappointed than INA fans ;)

Yeah, we were disappointed when LCW, but no big deal either .....:D:D

It would be a big deal if it were final of Olympics, World Championships, All-England.

[limsy]

IF Wong Pei Tty/Chin Ee Hui are to reach the Final of the China SS, they have to beat two of the pairs listed above: Xie Jing/Zhong Qianxin tomorrow and possibly Wang Siyun/Zhang Jinkang in the SF.

[abedeng]

Han Li provides a Bond girl rivalling performance, 8-5

[waile]

[badMania]

A topsy-turvy performance in the WS match....both players take turn to have the lead.

[waile]

[danielwong]

Chen Hong out of steam...

[abedeng]

Wondering who is PAWing on Chen Hong?

The CAT. Chen Hong is a sentimental pick.

[waile]

[madbad]

Well, looks like I'm missing out on a sure 16 points here. JYJ looking good, up 10-6.

[abedeng]

Tony/Candra start off with 1st point.

[abedeng]

Spirited fightback from Wang Chen, though JYJ is still up by 3.
