About Hans Bohm

Hans Bohm learned the basics of chess from his parents. He quickly became an International master during the period that Spassky, Fischer and Karpov were dominating the chess world. Later, his professional career turned to journalism, writing, commentating and becoming a prominent journalist hosting many several tv-shows. You can call him the real Dutch ambassador of chess. In 1988 he became the world record holder, Guinness-book of records, of a simultaneous display against 560 opponents, achieving a most remarkable positive score of 94%. Yochanan Afek (1952) was born and grew up in Tel-Aviv and now lives in Amsterdam. In more than 50 years of his professional chess career he has been a highly active player, trainer, journalist, organizer and a composer of studies and problems. He is an over the board International master, a Grandmaster of chess composition and International arbiter for both. His most memorable tournament victory is winning the Open Paris Championship 2002. He is the co-author of the highly acclaimed Invisible Chess Moves (Book of the Year 2011), Extreme Chess Tactics (2017) and Practical Chess Beauty (2018).
