Abbas Hossainy: The Stealthy Chess Warrior

Abbas Hossainy, known in the chess circles simply as abbashossainy, is a player who combines persistence with a hint of mystery—his signature opening is, quite literally, Top Secret. With a blitz peak rating hovering just above 1100 and bullet skirmishes flirting with the 790 mark, Abbas exemplifies the kind of player who’s always learning, always challenging, and never afraid to sweat over tough online battles.

Since 2019, Abbas has fought over 3,000 blitz battles, with an almost equal measure of wins and losses (1876 wins against 1854 losses). Bullet games tell a similar story, though with a slightly sharper edge—39 wins in 77 games. If chess were a soap opera, Abbas would definitely star in the “comeback kid” series, boasting a remarkable 72.6% comeback rate after adversity hits, and an unbeatable 100% win rate after losing a piece. Talk about perseverance!

Abbas’s style leans into the long game: his wins average over 61 moves, signaling patience and strategic depth, while losses tend to be longer affairs, clocking close to 69 moves. Despite the grind, he’s no stranger to early resignations, but only about 3.7% of the time—probably on days when he’s preoccupied pondering life’s bigger mysteries, like why the chessboard isn’t called a “checkered battlefield.”

Weekdays are Abbas’s playground, showing his sharpest performance on Tuesdays and Wednesdays with win rates just shy of 50%, while mornings (the mysterious 8 AM hour) are erratic—a perfect 100% win rate on some occasions, but just a 25% on others—chess morning grogginess, perhaps?

When playing White, Abbas edges ahead asymmetrically with a 51% win rate, but when rocking the black pieces, it’s a more humbling 44.7%. Still, his longest golden streak hit a dazzling 12 consecutive wins, with the current streak fresh and hopeful.

Abbas is also a social player who’s tangled minds with a colorful variety of opponents, beating (or being beaten by) a motley crew of usernames such as sponggnops (whom he beats 100% of the time) and loser1962 (who has gotten the better of him occasionally). Friendly rivalry fuels his passion—though the usernames alone might suggest some battles are taken quite seriously!

Beyond stats, Abbas is known for his sharp tactical awareness, mental resilience, and an endgame frequency that suggests a love for the intricate dance when victory teeters on a knife’s edge. And with a modest tilt factor of 10, he’s more zen monk than raging dragon—except maybe when his coffee runs out.

In the ever-competitive world of online chess, Abbas Hossainy remains a formidable tactician, a relentless competitor, and no doubt, a gladiator for every last pawn.
