Cynthia Roberts (aka Cynthia66)
Meet Cynthia Roberts, a dedicated chess enthusiast whose journey on the 64 squares feels a bit like a roller-coaster ride—full of ups, downs, and the occasional cheeky twist. Starting her rated adventure in 2015 with a modest 1200 rating in daily chess, Cynthia rose impressively to reach a peak daily rating of 1473 in May 2016, demonstrating she’s got tricks up her sleeve beyond "just moving pawns forward."
With a pragmatic style that favors resilient play, Cynthia favors endgames, frequently stretching games to their limit — an average of around 59 moves in wins and even more in losses. Her approach often tests the nerves of opponents (and perhaps herself), as she boasts an 80% comeback rate after losing a piece — basically a chess phoenix rising from minor setbacks. However, she’s not immune to the dreaded tilt, carrying a tilt factor of 37, so beware if you catch her on a bad streak!
Though Cynthia's win-loss record might look like an intense battle (with 1050 wins and 1595 losses in daily chess), she's famously better when playing “below” her rating category—winning nearly 70% of those matchups. When facing equally skilled opponents, her performance is almost a coin toss, but she brings the heat when a win counts most.
Not confined to just one time control, Cynthia battles it out across Daily, Blitz, Bullet, and Rapid chess games. Her Blitz peak rating soared to 1391 in early 2018, reflecting quick decision-making skills, even if the bullet games sometimes feel more like frantic karaoke than classical concerts. Her favorite openings? Cynthia’s games show an intriguing preference for the mysterious "Top Secret" openings, which yield a cheeky 61% win rate in Blitz – because why not keep your opponents guessing?
Speaking of style, Cynthia tends to throw in early resignations in just about 3% of her games—probably saving her sanity for those long battles ahead. Her best times to play? Early morning hours, around 2 am, where her calculated moves and sharp awareness truly shine. So if you want a fair fight, challenge her before the coffee kicks in.
A Sneak Peek at Recent Battles
Her latest winning move was a swift surrender by her opponent against the Kings Gambit, proving that even classic openings can still end with exciting twists and timely resignations. Meanwhile, losses have taught Cynthia valuable lessons — like remembering not to take on time troubles lightly, as one recent game ended with her losing on time despite a fierce fight.
