Sergio must be the big favorite now that he is ahead by 4 points!

Dutch humor ... So far score is - 2 draws. FID kindly agreed to delay beginning of match by 1 day. End of 2nd game (when I logged in) looked like White Duke where Ron had red pieces and Sergio - white.

Score after day one:
King 0
Scarpetta 0
drawn 4
No blood yet, but still a long way to go...
Only saw the last game which was a standard Laird and Lady draw. Published play until the last move.

I caught some of the third game, but then had to go. It looked pretty interesting.

Re: World Championship Match : Ron King vs. Sergio Scarpetta
what is the score at the moment???? i watch the very first game and it was great to see Michele Borghetti watching and giving the rest of us insight .... unfortunately i don't have time now to stay up all night like with the 3-move championship.
Good luck to Sergio & Ron ... may the best man win
cheers from Australia where one day it might stop raining, it is raining so much we are turning into England hahahaha

Danny, after two days of competition, the score is 0-0-8. In baseball cadence the anouncer would say "At the end of eight games, no wins, no losses, eight draws."Danny_Alvarez wrote:what is the score at the moment????
