Dec-15-05  Poisonpawns: A beautiful Leniningrad Dutch game by Gurevich! Awsome technique with the Two minor pieces by black in the middlegame totally a dominating performance.
Sep-12-13  PhilFeeley: New in Chess (2013/3):

<He writes about a game he lost versus Mikhail Gurevich, playing a Dutch (and nothing says “I intend to win” better than the Dutch!). Eljanov provides chess fans a glimpse into his soul when he writes, “Unsurprisingly, at some point in an ordinary but complex position I couldn’t withstand the tension and came under a crushing attack.”>

I don't know whether he's referring to this game or this one: Eljanov vs M Gurevich, 2005

I don't see either as featuring "a crushing attack" but maybe I had to be there.

(BTW: the above quote is from the excellent chess blog The Armchair Warrior http://xpertchesslessons.wordpress....).
