With an impressive Comeback Rate of over 82% and an almost uncanny Win Rate After Losing a Piece at nearly 98%, Bahadur is like the phoenix of the chessboard — rising from material deficits with style, resolve, and a healthy dose of mayhem. Their games tend to be long affairs with an average of about 69 moves when winning and over 76 moves when losing, suggesting a willingness to battle deep into the endgame.

- Bullet rating also soared past 2500, with a top score of 2509 in 2025.
- Rapid and daily games show a more modest but steady presence, with rapid play peaking at 1973.

Quirks & Fun Facts
- Holding the longest winning streak of 34 games, Bahadur can steamroll opponents like a freight train!
- While their tilt factor sits at 9, they somehow keep the cool under pressure—except maybe when losing to felix-rose or crescentmoon2411 (hint: those opponents proved tricky!).
- Bahadur’s preferred opening is a Top Secret – probably something so mysterious even grandmasters are scratching their heads!
Opponent Relationships
Bahadur has faced an array of challengers, with a winning history against some and tough battles against others. Interestingly, Bahadur has a perfect win rate against the opponent "felix-rose," but less success with some others, proving there's always a new puzzle to solve on the 64 squares.
When & How They Play
Bahadur enjoys playing at all hours, with the best win rates occurring around 4 AM (seriously!) and mid-morning sessions. Weekday vs weekend play shows subtle variations, but Friday ticks the highest win rate at just over 50%, so perhaps Bahadur has a secret Friday mojo.
Summary

Whether blitzing through opponents in under five minutes or slugging it out in marathon endgames, Bahadur brings a unique mix of tenacity and ingenuity to the board.

Personalized Feedback for Bahadur Khodzhamkuliev
Your current snapshot
- Peak blitz rating: 2545 (2025-03-04)
- When you score best:
What you’re already doing well
- Dynamic Pirc / Modern play. With Black you handle …d6/…g6 structures confidently, often seizing the initiative straight from the opening.
- Tactical alertness. Your recent miniature against Yash Laddha was decided by the neat fork 15…Nf3+.
- Practical fighting spirit. Several wins arrived in inferior or unclear positions because you kept the clock pressure high and posed problems.
- Pawn-storm instincts. Early g- and h-pawn pushes often unsettle opponents and create mating nets (see wins vs Kevin Joel Cori Quispe and Felix-Rose).
Growth opportunities
- Time management. Losses to Nicolai Maxime Østensen and Sergey Sklokin show you dipping under 20 s by move 30. Make a “clock check” every 10 moves; if your time share is below 40 %, play simpler moves until you catch up.
- Endgame conversion. A two-pawn edge slipped away versus Cumali Unver. Commit to 10 min/day of basic rook- and pawn-endgame drills (Lucena, Philidor, Vancura).
- Passed-pawn prophylaxis. Several defeats featured unstoppable side pawns. When the opponent creates a majority, think “blockade square first, capture later.”
- Sound white repertoire. The early 2.b4 experiment vs Turboplombir was punished fast. Add one solid main line (Catalan, Torre, or London) so you can alternate surprise weapons with theory when needed.
- Handling fixed pawn structures. In the loss to jayden3185 you accepted c-pawn weaknesses without counter-play. Study model games where the side with structural defects compensates through activity.
Two-week action plan
| Day(s) | Theme | Concrete task |
|---|---|---|
| Mon-Wed | Endgames | 30 rook-pawn drills; annotate one of your own rook endings. |
| Thu-Fri | Openings (White) | Build a 10-move repertoire file vs …c5 & …e5; test in 5 blitz games. |
| Sat | Prophylaxis | Replay 3 GM games featuring a-/h-file passed pawns; note blockade ideas. |
| Sun | Clock control | Review the week’s games; flag every move made in <5 s and decide how earlier planning could save time. |
Mindset reminder
Blitz is a laboratory. After every game record one lesson—tactical, strategic, or time-management. Ten notes become your own mini-course.
Stay creative and disciplined, Bahadur, and the next rating milestone will come sooner than you think!
