It is so pity that SIXTH was published prior this match and Suki interview, otherwise I would definetely include this Suki quote in my book: :P :lol: :wink:

"Jack is an okay player and you can't come against a player like me and expect to win by being okay."

Thanks for the links, Pal :wink: It is a good thing when someone posts url rather than saying 'yes, it's on google'.

Ron King seems to be King of Trash Talk :roll: :lol:

King

I would like to add to Alex's comment on Kings quote.

During their match (King Mosyeve) Alex played a great game on an analytical point of view and psychological.

However ( and I do not want to take anything away from Alex by saying this) looking over the games from Kings side I see a very low OKay player who walked in to pp losses or roughly in about 5 games between 8th move and 11th move was already getting himself into trouble.

I believe Francis to be better than an okay level , and perhaps king too, but as long as he goes on underestimating his opponents or treating them with contempt then he will go on making the crowds scorn him.

With a statement like that he is not the King but the Jester!!!

Finally to close ,I truely believe that his level has gone down (and thats a pity ) and I believe that he will see this and that this will be proven at the WQT

all the best

Match King vs Francis started in 2003 and still continue. This is between them. The most important thing is - Jack can't win a single game. This is very painful for him and has an unprecedent psychological pressure and influence on his mind.

==================================

William, I didn't want to support Suki statement, I was excited by his "unique talk style" :lol: and I was impressed by "quote itself"

I remember another story (it is covered in the SIXTH). When we played first International GAYP match on Barbados, Ron said in intervew "I am going to destroy Alex !". Then we played a game in the evening (see SIXTH SG-46, Pg. 335-338) and I won the game.
