4-2 to Harimoto. I predicted the same for the Harimoto vs Samsonov match. I can imagine that it will be 4-3, but Harimoto winning is my bet.

HT will come in into the match like a furious typhoon and TB will be in trouble, but as the match develops more from a sprint to a marathon, TB beats HT with experience and manages to seal the deal

The game will be determined in the serve/ receive game. If Harimoto prevents Boll from easy 3rd ball winners he will have a good chance

Yeah, but I think even if Boll manage to dominate the first games with his serve, Harimoto will learn quickly how to deal with them and in rally H seems better.

I think Boll has an advantage the first time around because his loops are a bit different and his game is also quite different. We could see him opt for a more aggressive third ball game or trying out outspinning Harimoto in a half-distance game, which Harimoto is not that great at yet.

I think it will be a lot harder the second time after Harimoto has gotten used to Boll's game.

Current status at the China Open Men's Singles Semifinals: I would call it: almost empty stadium.

Do you think it is something caused by the Chinese players protest or... table tennis is just like this? Disappointing.
