Meet PAWAN Prabhakar: The Chessboard's Unpredictable Maestro

PAWAN Prabhakar, also known in some circles as akshuj123, is a chess enthusiast whose journey resembles a thrilling rollercoaster more than a steady climb. With a penchant for rapid games, where his rating hit a commendable peak of 610 in 2025, PAWAN demonstrates both fierce determination and a flair for quick thinking.

Playing Style & Strengths

Known for an endgame frequency of nearly 50%, PAWAN doesn’t shy away from the gritty, last-phase battles of chess. His average moves per win hover around 54, reflecting a preference for thoughtful, extended encounters rather than lightning-fast finishes—unless it's bullet, of course!

His comeback rate is impressive at nearly 68%, and if he loses a piece, don't count him out: PAWAN's win rate after such setbacks is a staggering 99.78%. In other words, dropping a knight or pawn? Just a challenge accepted.

Opening Repertoire: A Mixed Bag with Some Serious Surprises

• Bullet: Italian Game with an 86% win rate—clearly a weapon of choice for those rapid-fire duels.
• Scandinavian Defense also shines in his arsenal, especially in bullet and blitz with win rates over 70% and 50% respectively.
• The quirky Van t Kruijs and Mieses Openings bring about nearly 70% wins in bullet games, showcasing PAWAN’s love for less trodden paths.

Rating Evolution & Performance

From a bullet rating of 282 in 2023, PAWAN soared up to 495 in 2025, proving that persistence pays off. His blitz play peaked at 465 before a slight dip, while rapid chess remains his strongest suit, climbing steadily with an impressive 570 rating in 2025, showing his aptitude for that middle ground between blitz and classic.

Psychology & Quirks

PAWAN’s psychological profile shows a mild tilt factor of 7—meaning he’s human and sometimes lets emotions play a role. However, his early resignation rate stays low at below 7%, indicating he rarely throws in the towel prematurely.

Interestingly, he performs best playing White (53% win rate) but remains competitive with Black (49%). And if you challenge him on a Saturday, expect him to bring his best game with a 54% win rate on that day!

Notable Rivalries & Records

Some opponents seem to baffle PAWAN—he’s yet to claim a win against manoj_chess1 but sports 100% win rates against others like fazzrab and gainormus. This inconsistency adds an exciting unpredictability to his story.

Fun Fact

Though mighty on the board, PAWAN’s daily chess results leave some room for improvement with just 2 games played and no wins so far. Perhaps daily practice could be his new secret weapon!

In the world of chess, where grandmasters reign, PAWAN Prabhakar reminds us that passion mixed with perseverance—and a splash of quirky openings—can make every game an adventure.
