How do you know that? Seeing as a day ago you didn't even know he created any studies?
Who is Jan Timman?

The pictures are beautiful like a movie film.
Take a few minutes to look at it if you want. Here in France we loved it.

Impressive. But if you want to improve I'd suggest slowing down and really taking your time with books. Not just skimming through, but really analysing.

As for games between Timman and Short, this amazing final deserves to be mentioned as well...

Hej, tantale I was just watching that docu, it's pretty interesting, it covers some of the topics popular at these forums, like character traits of chess players and addictiveness of chess

You also love Jerry Lewis.
And don't forget his spiffy version of "Old Black Magic"...
(Say, it just occurred to me...did Jer mean for that character to be a spoof of old Dino?)
@AlfyDoor: Right, I must have overlooked this somehow...

This is a great book (by GM Timman of course!), but the current cover sucks so I'm showing the original cover. 24 games in 216 pp most of which are deeply annotated, look for a cheap used copy at amazon - or a brand new one with the cover that sucks, if you can afford it and prefer buying brand-new books.
Jan TImman once became the worlds number 3 player at the time the two Ks dominated the chess world.Formerly the best in the west. Sadly, most of the games i come up with involves him losing critical matches against tough oppoisition.

Yes, a humbling thought (and all too often the case when you're not a world champ).
