World Championship Match : Ron King vs. Sergio Scarpetta

[George Hay]

Of course, there is the famous Martins vs Wyllie WCM of 1863 that ended up a tied match at 0-0-50.
Martins retained the Title, but by this time Wyllie was already a former World Champion.
This match features the famous Wyllie vs Martins game that was played with the exact same moves for 28 games.

Now I want to say that I’m not feeling a victim. I did my best and I’m happy, although it was not enough.

Everything will be fine for me, no objection!

It's done, it's gone, boy ! One event is over, another on the way in Lille. Good luck you there and remember: there is only one way to prove pudding - eat it !

Sergio, all your skills and abilities demonstrated in last match are much better matching 3-noves style in my eyes. Don't waste your time.

GAYP is only small, miniature model of 3-moves style where all your knowledges, imagination, fantasy and cross aboard skills can be utilize with full strength.

Another tied WCM was the Wiswell vs Hopper rematch of 1953. ( In the first ACF era GAYP WCM in 1951 the Challenger
Tom Wiswell defeated then Champion Millard Hopper.) In 1953 in Glasgow, Kentucky, USA, Hopper challenged Wiswell to a rematch for the GAYP Title! The final score of the 1953 WCM was a tie at 2-2-36 with Wiswell retaining the Title.
(Thanks to Jay H. for the accurate score!)

George, you are right about the Wyllie - Martins Match 1863, but I really doubt that the 2nd Wiswell - Hopper match was really anything but an arranged result. Hopper was never able to draw Wiswell. The result in the fist match is the maximum he could do.
Just look at his results and games in serious competition. Wisell was a master, but Hopper was not. He was a mediocre majors players. Every player that played in San Remo 2011 would have crushed him like Wiswell did.

I believe somehow Hopper talked Wisell into giving him a tied rematch, so that he could get away without being humiliated, which would have been bad for his promotion efforts.

If I see all fourty games I might change my mind, but so far it looks as if Wiswell was doing Hopper a favor.
