Andrew, you mentioned the exact same players that I was thinking about!

Simen Agdestein definitely still plays the stonewall. He is also one of the authors of the "norwegian" stonewall book project, Win with the Stonewall Dutch (march 2009).
CC world champion, Ivar Bern (also part of the team) is another excellent candidate for study of the french/dutch combination.

Is Dolmatov still playing? Iirc he played the leningrad.



Yeah, just saw this some days ago:

OK, it's an anti-Dutch system, but still Carlsen's old teacher was willing to play the Dutch against Grischuk!

I don't play the Dutch myself, but never relish facing it.

3 others surprisingly not named:

Nigel Short, Sergei Dolmatov and Simon Agedstein. Would concede that they seem to have given up on the Dutch ! I am guessing that you mean stonewall dutch but if you want leningrad look no further than Mikahil Gurevich !

Gleizarov's mate Ulibin also plays the French and Dutch Stonewall as does Victor Moskalenko.

In addition to the ones already mentioned--Russian GM Evgeny Gleizerov plays the Classical French and Stonewall Dutch and basically nothing else, and has for years.

Moskalenko, Botvinnik, Djurhuus , Simon Williams, Igor Glek, Eva Moser, Stefan Kindermann, Korchnoi, and Yusupov.

I underlined those I thought were particularly interesting.

Whose games ought I to be studying, if I wish to study players who use both the French and the Dutch?  Thank you very much. Undecided
