Playing Philosophy & Quirks
BAKIR935’s average moves per win are around 57, but losses tend to drag longer, around 61 moves, as if saying, “If I’m losing, I’m going down trying to make it count.” White pieces tend to carry a slight advantage with a 49.25% win rate versus Black’s 46.89%. Surprisingly, mornings seem less kind (with a crawl at 33.33% win rate at 5 AM), but the alertness peaks late evenings around 11 PM and especially the early hours around 6 AM — who said chess players aren't creatures of the night?
The player’s tactical sharpness shines with a knack for bouncing back after setbacks, winning nearly 42% of games even after losing a piece. However, BAKIR935 also exhibits a healthy dose of humility, as the win rate against higher-rated opponents is 27.5%, showing that every grandmaster was once a beginner (or a determined underdog).
