Сергей Деменев (CutterOk) - Chess Player Profile

Born to challenge kings and queens alike, Сергей Деменев, better known online as CutterOk, has carved a niche for himself in the world of rapid chess with a rollercoaster rating journey and a fighting spirit worthy of a grandmaster’s respect.

Chess Journey & Performance

Starting in 2021 with a modest rapid rating near 101, Сергей skyrocketed to a peak rating of 802 in April 2022, proving that even chess prodigies have their caffeine moments! Since then, he’s hovered around the 600-700 rating range, showcasing a blend of fierce victories and humble setbacks. Daily chess also features in his repertoire, peaking impressively at 791 in late 2024.

With over 274 wins and nearly as many losses in rapid games, Сергей is familiar with both the thrill of victory and the sting of defeat. His longest winning streak? A commendable 7 games. Not too shabby! On the flip side, a challenging 10-game losing streak reminds us that even the best sometimes blunder their queen to a sneaky pawn.

Playing Style & Tactical Acumen

Сергей’s games usually last around 46 moves, slightly favoring longer battles that keep spectators on the edge of their seats. He boasts a solid White win rate at 51%, proving that going first isn't just a formality. His comeback rate is an impressive 71.58%, revealing a knack for turning dire positions around – resilience embodied. However, early resignations happen about 7.37% of the time, because who wants to drag a losing battle when you can get to the next game faster?

Preferred Openings

Сергей enjoys playing with king’s pawn openings including the King's Knight Variation and Center Game, with win rates just over 50%. Notably, he shines in the Pirc Defense Maroczy Defense and Center Game Accepted where he boasts an impressive 66.67% win rate – because sometimes the less common routes lead to checkmate faster.

Psychological Traits & Timing

The best time for Сергей to strike is ironically at 1 AM, when most mortals are dreaming of knights and rooks but he is conjuring attacks on virtual boards instead. His “tilt factor” is a modest 10, which in chess terms means he can take losses with a shrug and get right back to hunting blunders.

Notable Games

Among recent gems is a striking victory via resignation against zartoote1984 (2025), featuring a precise attack exploiting early queen maneuvers to force surrender. Another masterpiece was a swift checkmate with the Pirc Defense Maroczy Defense variant, where CutterOk showcased tactical sharpness and creativity.

Whether you meet Сергей Деменев on the virtual battlefield or the coffee shop, one thing is clear: he is a chess enthusiast who dances gracefully with both wins and losses, ever ready to jump back into the fray with a smile and a sharp move.
