An interesting idea by Gurevich to put pressure on the d5-pawn and gain more space on the queenside. 12.Bb3 (12.Bxb5 exd5 13.Nxf6+ Nxf6=/+) 12...c5!=.

The simultaneous end of a number of dreams! Of course, White's plan was to play Bc4 but the coordination of the queen and the e6 bishop leaves Black well placed to meet this (the game). Meanwhile, ...Bg5 is a serious option, and of course, the unprotected state of the bishop on b5 prevents Nc4-e3.
