Intermediate games or Grandmaster games?
Sort:
Hello everyone, I am a 1400+ player seeking to improve my Chess, however I am finding it hard determining which is better between these two, studying annotated games played by players of my rating range or studying annotated grandmaster games. I would love any useful advice on what to do.

I loved a book called "Chess Master versus Chess Amateur" by Max Euwe when I was first learning. A former world champion explaining mistakes made by fairly skilled amateurs was very instructive.
Another book by Jeremy Silman, The Amateur's Mind, is somewhat similar and is often recommended here. I also liked it a lot.
