Gulmira Dauletova, Woman Grandmaster

Once simply known as a fierce chess tactician, Gulmira Dauletova has ascended to the prestigious title of Woman Grandmaster, a testament to her strategic brilliance and tenacity on the 64 squares. Known in chess circles simply as Dauletova, she has dazzled opponents and fans alike with her sharp openings and relentless endgame mastery.

Rating Highlights & Style

Gulmira’s blitz rating has soared to a peak of 2408, while her bullet and rapid skills have hit impressive highs of 2431 and 2280, respectively. If chess were a rollercoaster, hers would be filled with thrilling climbs and nail-biting descents—her longest winning streak hitting 14 games, but don’t be fooled by that, her longest losing streak is a humbling 22 games. Quite the emotional rollercoaster, but she bounces back with a comeback rate nearing 85%—resilience personified!

Playing Personality

Dauletova is the player you never catch napping: she resigns early only about 1.5% of the time (because why give away pieces for free?), favors deep, drawn-out battles with over 84% endgame appearances, and keeps her average winning games at a marathon 73 moves. White pieces bring her a slight edge with a win rate over 51%, but she’s no slouch with the black pieces either, scoring well over 44% there. Strategic, patient, and full of surprises—just how we love our chess!

Fierce Rivalries and Memorable Games

She’s squared off repeatedly against some tough opponents—almatyonelove, july16z, and markordel top the list. While she has had mixed results, many opponents have glimpsed just how formidable she can be, judging by her 100% win rates against a notable number of players (sorry, challengers, Gulmira doesn’t do partial victories).

Psychological Quirks

Her tilt factor is at 22, so yes, she feels the heat—who wouldn’t after slinging tactical moves all day? Yet, the best time to catch her playing her absolute best is at 1 AM. Whether that means sleepless brilliance or midnight coffee-fueled genius, Gulmira knows how to keep the board alive under the moonlight.

Notable Victories

One can’t forget her recent smashing checkmate victory where she played Black against Gheghepiano and concluded the game in style by checkmating on move 31 in a complex tactical melee. For those who enjoy studying the finesse of a genuine Grandmaster, this game is a must-see!

In Summary

Gulmira Dauletova is no stranger to the drama, the strategy, and the sheer joy of chess. With a blend of grit, genius, and a touch of midnight madness, she continues to be a true force in the chess world — proving time and again that every piece counts, and every move tells a story. Ready to outwit, outplay, and outlast, Gulmira embodies the spirit of a warrior on the chess battlefield!
