    I go along with you in every match, except MD Bronze. But then, this is the tournament of the underdogs, so I'm not betting on it.

    Yes MD was where I had the most hesitations, but hey, can you imagine Indonesia finishing the olympics without a single medal in MD??? :p

    It looks like Indo. will have a pretty good chance in MS. Both Sony and Taufik are in the final 4.Taufik should win...... sony,.....probably will as well, if he fights hard :)

    I think Zhang/Yang will beat Ra/Lee.

    And if this happens, it will be a very interesting result in the other semi finals. Will LYB want Gao/Huang to lose to Zhao/Wei so that China will have a much better chance of winning Gold, Silver, and Bronze once again?

    Sony will advance for sure, but for Taufik I still don't know.

    Boonsak have something mysterious... Hope Taufik can win as he worked so hard against 2 giants: WCH and Gade.

    once again. 3 Chinese competitors in the semi and the match against the non-Chinese is happening first. China has been lucky with the scheduling.

    and notice that they allocate 1:20 for the MS/MD matches but an extra 10mins for the WD.... :)

    Unexpected Finalist from the doubles.. Koreans are guaranteed Silver and Gold in this event.. my prediction is it will be a close game and both team understand each game very very well.. but i hope Kim/Ha will get the gold

    It won't be easy for Taufik and Sony to win this time even though they have been playing well so far, this is Olympics semifinal, their opponents are underdog and will fight till the end, but I agree that Sony and Taufik have a better chance ... I hope Taufik/Sony would win the gold though ...

    Denmark pair most likely would win, because Eng Hian and Flandy have bad records against European pair, and Flandy hurted his leg ... hopefully they will fight all out and give their best, not like in the semi ...
