Profile Summary: Jack Adamd (Adamsjs16)

Meet Jack Adamd, known to many by his chess.com handle Adamsjs16, a relentless warrior on the 64 squares who seems to have a love-hate relationship with his own bullet chess rating that once soared to a blazing 943 in March 2021, only to hover modestly around the mid-600s as of late. But hey, who’s counting when you’ve played thousands of games across bullet, blitz, daily, and rapid formats?

Chess Journey

Jack’s chess journey is like a rollercoaster — thrilling, intense, and unpredictable. From an early rating of 512 in bullet chess back in 2018 to peaking at 1313 in daily chess this year, he’s proven his stamina and adaptability across all time controls. Bullet might be his wild west with its fast pace, but daily chess is where Jack shows his strategic chops, steadily climbing to impressive highs.

Playing Style & Mental Game

With an endgame frequency near 55% and an average of 59 moves per win, Jack likes to settle in for the long haul. He doesn't shy away from drawn-out battles — and when things get tough, his comeback rate of 71% suggests never to count him out. His psychological tilt factor is a modest 10, which means he occasionally lets a blunder slip — but who doesn’t after a 10-move losing streak?

Stats that Impress and Intrigue

• Total games played: Over 7,000 across all formats — seriously, he basically lives on the board.
• Win/Loss Records: Bullet chess has been a bumpy ride with nearly equal wins (3316) and losses (3337), but daily chess shows a winning edge.
• Favorite Openings: Jack’s Scandinavian Defense (Mieses-Kotrc Variation) strikes fear — or at least curiosity — into opponents, boasting a strong 83% win rate in limited play.

Notable Victories & Defeats

Jack’s most recent wins include a sneaky knight capture in the Scandinavian Defense that left his opponent shaking their head and resigning early, and a cool checkmate against momosss994 using the Closed Sicilian — proving he's a master of tactical surprises.

Of course, not every battle ends in glory; his last losses show that even a seasoned competitor like Jack can be outsmarted by strong London System and Vienna Game players. But as the saying goes, “You can’t make omelettes without losing a few pawns.”

The Man Behind the Moves

Jack Adamd is not just a chess player; he’s a chess adventurer who embraces every twist and turn on the board with a mix of tenacity, tactical flair, and the occasional dash of humor (mostly directed at himself after a blunder).

Whether it’s outmaneuvering opponents with subtle positional play or chasing those elusive bullet wins against the clock, Jack remains a spirited competitor — always ready for the next game, the next challenge, and possibly that one winning streak that will silence the doubters (and his own inner critic).

Follow Jack’s games, and you’ll be reminded why chess is as thrilling as life itself — full of surprises, setbacks, and victories worth savoring.
