As predicted

"I would be really suprised if Xu Xin wouldn't face Samsonov in the final even though both of them must win two matches each to get there".

Samsonov did meet Xu Xin and this time he hade his revenge, he won in a tight game with 4-1.

Both of them was in a class of their own and won all of their matches quite easy. The only player who could threaten them was "Merlin" Yingchao and he was beaten by Xu in the second round.

So another title to "The spiderman from Minsk"
