| WhiteSox: I can hear them bragging...
'That was OLD STYLE, man!'
'I can't believe he was stupid
enough to put his hard -earned
money in a bank.'
'You're a RING-TAIL ROUNDER Mike.'
'You're King Kong...' |

Feb-27-06 Gulko vs I Gurevich, 1991
| |
| WhiteSox: Btw, for the newbie, if 20 Rxd5?
Qa1+! 21 Rd1 Rb1!! would have
been crisp. |

Feb-27-06 Kamsky vs I Gurevich, 1991
| |
| WhiteSox: Kamsky decisively whips in the
revenge game. Rustam questions
why Gata wasn't given the Samford
fellowship. |

Feb-27-06 I Gurevich vs Benjamin, 1992
| |
| WhiteSox: OK, I just checked this with Skij.
20...Nxb2? 21 Ng5! f6. Here I was
only looking at 22 ef, when 22...Rxf6
defends, but missed that 22 ed! now
wins a piece.

Feb-27-06 Benjamin vs I Gurevich, 1991

| WhiteSox: 31..e5!!
32 Nxe5 Nh5; 32 Bxe5 Re6! |

Feb-27-06 Kudrin vs I Gurevich, 1990
| |
| WhiteSox: That knight was clearly Black's best
piece, actually his only piece,
which is why 18 Rxc6!! should be
played without thinking.
But Black still looks lost on move
23 if 23 f4! and then trying to
resac a rook for the knight. |

Feb-27-06 Kamsky vs I Gurevich, 1991
| |
| WhiteSox: Certainly no need for Rustam to
choke Patrick Wolff here! This is
pretty much a clean sweep by Ilya.
Actually, why is there a body of
Sicilian theory (mostly referring
to the previous game with Benjamin)
that only seems to have been discovered by Ilya Gurevich? I ... |

Feb-27-06 I Gurevich vs A Rodriguez Vila, 1991
| |
| WhiteSox: 33 Rd6! Qc7 34 Rxc6!
I suppose this has already been
pointed out somewhere. |

Feb-27-06 I Gurevich vs Smirin, 1990
| |
| WhiteSox: 22?
22 Rxa7 ; 22 Re1. |

Feb-27-06 R Disconzi da Silva vs Mecking, 1995
| |
WhiteSox: OK. 30 Nxd5 Rd7 31 Nf6+ Bxf6
32 Bxf6 (  .)
But 30...Rc1! (  .) is OK for Black. |
