Arbiter: [Spoken]
Gentlemen, the score is five games each
You both need just one more win to be world champion
Frederick: [Spoken]
All eyes in the world of chess and indeed many eyes outside
Are turned towards Bangkok, Thailand today
Where what many here expect to be
The final game of the match in this gripping encounter
Has just been launched with the ceremonial splendor
And all the talk is of the recent sensational loss of form
Of world champion Sergievsky
Who seems certain to surrender his title here today
To the mightily impressive Viigand
