Timman denied Hans Bohm his GM title.
Don't know if Bohm needed only a draw
for that game. |

| Dec-19-11 | | bronkenstein: Happy late B-day Jan , I just `discovered` it by checking Chessvibes. To cover some of my shame - a quote from your new biography by Jon Kuipers: <He's seen as one of the last romantics in the chess world. At the board the player from Amsterdam was a brilliant strategist. He dominated chess in The Netherlands so much, that he became synonym for it, and thus a worthy successor of former World Champion Max Euwe. Away from the board, he was a pleasant bon-vivant who enjoyed life to the max.> , from http://chessvibes.com/reports/jan-t... <Remember, life starts at 66.> ... and ends in 666? |
