Profile of Chess Player Anshaj06

Meet Anshaj06, a scrappy rapid chess warrior with a rollercoaster rating ride and a flair for the unexpected! Peaking at a respectable 370 rating in October 2024, Anshaj06 isn't just playing chess — they’re surviving it, thriving on the thrill of tactical comebacks with a stunning 78.33% comeback rate after facing adversity on the board.

Playing Style & Strengths

Known for more black wins than white (Black Win Rate: 56.35%), Anshaj06 prefers to bide their time before striking, with endgames making up over 42% of their battles’ finales. While early resignations happen about 18% of the time (sometimes you just know when it’s not your day), their average moves per win (~52 moves) reveal they're not afraid of a long, drawn-out fight.

Tactical awareness is their jam — nearly half the time they clinch victory even after losing a piece (46.08%), proving resilience is a core trait. However, beware: once in a one-sided loss (about 30% of losses), they tend to throw in the towel. Their psychological tilt factor is low (8), so even bad beats don’t throw off their game for too long.

Opening Repertoire: The Curious Collection

• Van‘t Kruijs Opening: Their hidden weapon, smashing opponents with an impressive 88.89% win rate!
• King’s Pawn Opening: The comforting classic — winning nearly 60% of games here.
• Queen’s Pawn and Others: A mixed bag of battles, from the mysterious Reti to the enigmatic Bird’s Opening, with varying success.
• “Undefined” openings (because who needs standard when you have style?): A modest 40.5% win rate, keeping opponents guessing.

Notable Records & Stats

With over 250 rapid games played, Anshaj06 has a near-even split between wins (120 wins) and losses (114), a testament to relentless competitiveness. Their longest winning streak reached 7 games — a week of pure chess bliss — but they've also endured a humbling 8-game losing streak. Chess, much like life, is full of ups and downs!

Quirks & Fun Facts

Late morning to noon is prime time — between 10 AM and 12 PM games show the highest win rates (up to 80% at noon!).

Also, don’t expect them to give up quickly: average losses tend to be quicker (around 42 moves) than wins (~52 moves).

One notable recent victory features a daring and unconventional opening knight dance starting with 1.Nh3 — because why not confuse your opponent from the get-go? This style embodies Anshaj06’s blend of creativity and grit.
