Bogdan Petrovic (aka Cobinesto16)
Meet Bogdan Petrovic, a chess enthusiast whose journey through the 64 squares is as colorful and intense as a Sicilian Defense. Known in the chessworld (and on the internet) as Cobinesto16, Bogdan has exhibited a rollercoaster ride of ratings, a mixture of comebacks, tactical flair, and an undying love for fast-paced games.
Rating Highlights & Style
- Rapid rating peaked impressively at 1230 in 2024, and maintains a solid 1073 as of 2025.
- Blitz rating boasts an early high of 708, showcasing quick wit and lightning reflexes.
- Daily and other slow games rating growing steadily, topping 548 in 2025, for those relaxed Sunday afternoon battles.
Bogdan’s style is a fascinating cocktail: he rarely resigns early (1.95% early resignation rate) and has a sharp eye for endgames (engages in them about 65.52% of the time) — a testament to his persistence. He fights hard, pulling off comebacks with a 78% success rate, and oddly enough, if he loses a piece, he wins 100% of the time after that (talk about turning lemons into lemonade!).
Psychology & Quirks
Despite all logic, Bogdan's "Tilt Factor" is at 12 — which we interpret as 'sometimes gets a little grumpy but shakes it off like a true champion.' His rated vs casual game win difference is a notable 23.58%, showing that when the stakes are high, his killer instinct kicks in.
Playing Habits
Fun fact: Bogdan tends to perform best on Sundays with a win rate just over 50%, and is surprisingly good at odd hours — like 1 AM with a stunning 66.67% win rate! Perhaps a night owl plotting his next checkmate?
Record & Rivals
Boasting thousands of rapid games and a near-even win-loss record, Bogdan has faced opponents ranging from the seasoned petrovic_dusan (38 encounters) to the elusive radza12, scoring a respectable win rate against many. Some players he’s yet to defeat, but the dream of the first victory keeps the battle alive!
In Summary
Bogdan Petrovic is the perfect avatar for the passionate club player: an indefatigable strategist who knows that every loss is just a prelude to the next brilliant comeback. Whether blitzing through the opening or slugging it out in the endgame trenches, Bogdan’s games are never boring and always full of heart. Expect the unexpected — and maybe an occasional coffee break before the final mate.
