timmanfan: At first I thought 9. Nd5 was a strong move. A closer look tells me that after 9...axb5 10 c3 Qc8!! and black is much better |

timmanfan: Timman played a good opening but than mist his chance. 15...a5 was not very good. 15...Qb6! was strong. Timman maybe feared 16 f3 but than 16...Nxa2 17. Rxa2 Be6! regaining the piece would have been strong in which black is better |
