China vs korea final will be awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
pretty confident that will be the outcome.

The match of the day is the one between Hong Kong and Japan. They are fighting to stay in the top group. I wonder if we will see ZM/WZ playing WD again. The Japanese WD team is pretty good.

I'm afraid it is unlikely to happen since INA has a slight edge on both WS and MS. And 50:50 for both MD and XD.

.....same for MAS. If KKK/TBH and WMC played like they did yesterday , then we are in for a treat. My prediction -

XD - CHN 70 : 30 MAS
MS - 50:50
MD - 50:50
WS - CHN 60 :40 MAS (Dun forget WMC's dragon slaying feats before)
WD - CHN 60 : 40 MAS

....so if MAS were to clinch it, MS, MD and WS got to deliver like they did yesterday . Otherwise, it will be a 5 -0 win for CHN..

Definitely agree. Our path to victory is through MD, WS, and MS. WD and XD not TOTALLY out of the game though...

Hahaha ... Aren't most of us still thinking of the big matches to be played tomorrow?

Hope that BCers from countries playing today can come in the show support for their teams.

Just checked into the hotel and met fastdrop, our estwhile, ahem, team official of the Philippines. But now things aren't looking good for them, down 0-2 to Portugal.

But Singapore's new prodigy, Ashton Chen is pretty good, almost like Tanongsak. Good mobility and brain.

Singapore MD is having trouble slowing down TPE young pair.

Pukhov tries to keep Russia in the hunt but Boonsak gets a 2nd wind.
