Biography of Anand B. (Anandsb)
Anand B., known online as Anandsb, is a dedicated chess enthusiast whose journey on the 64 squares is nothing short of a rollercoaster ride. With a blitz rating oscillating around the 700s to 1300s over recent years, Anand’s playstyle combines dogged persistence with an uncanny ability to make a comeback when the chips are down—boasting an impressive 82.37% comeback rate and a perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece. Yes, you read that right: if Anand loses a piece, the game is far from over.
Specializing primarily in blitz chess, Anand has played over 3,500 blitz games—where both nerves and speed matter—and though the win/loss record sits evenly balanced (about 47% wins), his longest winning streak of 8 games shows that on a good day, he definitely means business. Anand’s average games last quite a while, too—winning games averaging nearly 67 moves—showing he's not one for quick knockouts, but for patient, strategic battles.
Anand’s style is a mix of tenacity and strategic endurance, with a high endgame frequency (77.41%), rarely giving up early with a low early-resignation rate of 1.46%. He has a slight preference for playing with the white pieces, enjoying a 48.52% win rate, but black doesn’t intimidate him either at 45.82%.
When not calculating complex tactical shots, Anand keeps his psychological game solid—his tilt factor is a healthy 10, meaning that while losses sting, they don’t derail his focus for long. He seems to prefer afternoon battles, especially around 4 PM, where his win rate peaks at nearly 55%. Fun fact: matches starting at midnight are clearly not his forte, with a 0% win rate in that hour. Perhaps Anand needs his beauty sleep!
Off the board, Anand has an eclectic list of opponents, ranging from “krutoidimash13” to “jairai336,” with mixed results. Interestingly, he holds a 100% win record against several friends and foes alike, but certain rivals like “krutoidimash13” and “retsoss” seem to have cracked his code, handing him losses with effortless grace.
With a steady daily rating climbing to 1600 in 2025 from a modest start, one daily game played but flawlessly won, Anand clearly has the potential to conquer longer time controls when he sets his mind to it.
In summary: Anand B. is a resilient, strategic player with a knack for comebacks, a love for long endgames, and perhaps a not-so-secret bedtime routine that avoids playing at midnight. Whether blitzing opponents or strategizing in daily games, Anand’s chess journey is as thrilling as his unpredictable win rates!
