Dec-11-08		SwitchingQuylthulg: I've never heard of Jusuoov before, but he must have been a pretty strong player to beat Timman at Tilburg '86. This is his only game in this database though, can anyone provide more? It speaks further volumes about Jusuoov's strength that his play was copied by Artur Yusupov in the same tournament - Timman vs Yusupov, 1986 - though in that game Timman, understandably wanting to avoid a repeat, tried 24. g6+ g8 25. xd3 instead.

Dec-11-08		slomarko: Timman is overated.
