Profile: adamkanevsky
Meet adamkanevsky, a chess adventurer navigating the battlefield of 64 squares with a rating rollercoaster that rivals the best theme parks. Starting strong with a blitz peak of 912 in March 2023 and a rapid peak of 1095 the month prior, adamkanevsky has shown flashes of brilliance and plenty of heart – especially when bouncing back from tough losses with a comeback rate of over 71%!
While adamkanevsky’s blitz rating has seen ups and downs between 300 and 600+, their resilience is evident—they’ve played nearly 1,000 blitz games with an almost equal split between wins and losses, proving that perseverance beats monotony. In rapid games, the stats reveal a player with solid strategic chops and a preferred time control that enables thoughtful, tactical battles.
Known for love affairs with openings like the Italian Game (where they secured checkmate in a recent game), and the rather mysterious Top Secret opening boasting a 61.9% win rate, adamkanevsky keeps opponents guessing. The Scandinavian Defense and King's Pawn Variations also feature prominently, showing adaptability across their rapid and blitz repertoire.
A quirky fact: adamkanevsky’s best time of day to play is 7 PM, where the stars align for winning magic. Beware opponents playing in that prime time window! With a tilt factor of just 8, frustration rarely gets the better of this fighter, who averages over 50 moves per win—clearly enjoying the strategic marathon rather than quick snacks.
When pushing their luck, adamkanevsky sometimes early resigns (~7.5% of the time), a sign that even the boldest warriors know when to conserve their mental energy for the next thrilling encounter. Their wins often come via a mix of timely checkmates and well-calculated resignations from overwhelmed foes.
Off the clock, adamkanevsky shows a playful streak: with a bullet record consisting of a perfect 1 win from 1 game, it’s safe to say they’re warming up for the ultra-fast fun. And with a knack for beating some opponents 100% of the time (looking at you, mnesteruk88 and timer380), they can be both gracious and ruthless on demand.
In sum, adamkanevsky is the friend you want beside you in a long blitz battle, quick to come back from the edge, always ready with sneaky new openings, and the king of the final hour chess rally. Here’s to many more games filled with thrills, chills, and checkmates!
