    Tontowi-Butet are seeded number 2, but they are BC's favorite! :D

    Because they are both European pairs and ranked not too far apart from each other;

    Sam Magee/Chloe Magee (IRL)......................Ranked 38
    Baptiste Careme/Laura Choinetmagee (FRA)...Ranked 52

    It could be an interesting match between these 2 pairs. :):):)

    I am sure BCers won't jinx them; Otherwise it's really bad for BC to conduct our polls. :D:D:D

    And with that, comes great expectations ...... When Butet won with Nova in 2007, expectations on them were not that high.

    My personal expectation, is for Towi not to shoot himself in the foot like what we saw in the Indonesia Premier Super Series. Win with dignity, or lose with dignity.

    Hope that as Tantowi Ahmad gains more experience, he would be more focused. This poll shows that many have confidence in him.

    Currently (after 116 votes), Tantowi Ahmad & Liliyana Natsir [INA] are having a BIG lead (No.2 Seed , with 54 votes), while the No.1 Seed, Zhang Nan & Zhao Yunlei [CHN], are far behind with 26 votes.

    yeah im happy for the brits

    i never rated tao jia ming anyway... the guy's flakey and you can see it in his demeanour. just never truly "A" team quality, bit like guo zhen dong. Unlike say, someone like Zhang nan, who looks to be a genuine A team player, a champion.

    but the brits are going to get demolished by the Indonesians!

    I also think that today (at the Semi-Finals), C.Adcock/I.Bankier could be defeated by T.Ahmad/L.Natsir [2].

    But let's wait and see (in about 10 hours' time). :):):)

    Boooooooom!!!What a win for the British pair! The Indonesians weren't prepared for that!! A very mature display by Adcock/Bankier as well, the Indonesians came back at the end of both arts but were still able to hold their resolve in WBA was quite a comfortable match!Not too sure about tomorrow, as a Nan/Yunlei fan I hope the world one pair gets gold but a little part of me hopes for an upset!Well done Britain!

    Don't say that. If BC can jinx players, BC should not conduct polls anymore, in any future events. :):):)
