En na twee twee rapidpotjes hadden de V.S. een kampioen
It has been an honour to compete here for the US title. You are here to see us play a rapid and blitz playoff, but we respectfully refuse. The US Championship is too important to be decided by ill-calculated, frivolous means appropriate to gambling. We would like to entertain you today with a friendly rapid match, and we shall, but only if you agree now to a real playoff - a serious match to be organized within six months. It will magnetize all chess fans and the media and promote US chess as never before.>> speel de rapidfinale na
