Absolutely. It is one of the very best methods of study. Just annotate them to the best of your abilities. As you get stronger and stronger, you might want to go over some of them again, with new annotations.
Do chess players benefit from studying master games in their own perspective?

Thanks, since yesterday I studied a master game of the Panov attack (Zaitsev Igor A vs. Knezevic Milorad) from my perspective and got some of the basic ideas right.

Try Reti vs Bogoljubov, New York 1924.
You can find it easy enough with Google or any other web-based search engine.

Yes, it's an effective tactic that also happens to be a beautiful move.
Reti's attack on Bogo's poorly-defended Pawn center is well worth studying, too... first White plays Pawn f2-f3, and when Black plays e4xf3 White recaptures with the Bishop (!) reserving the Pawn on e2 to play e2-e4, completing the demolition of Black's shaky center.
Look over that section of the game again some time.

I'll look over it soon. thanks lol
I want to study chess games but I don't know if it will benefit me at all (since I'm 1100) if I annotate the game giving MY ideas.
