Profile Summary: DavidGNB
Meet DavidGNB, a rapid chess enthusiast who’s been making waves (and occasional ripples) in the 2025 chess scene. With a peak rapid rating of 562 achieved in May 2025, DavidGNB has bravely battled through 170 rapid games — winning 81, losing 80, and drawing 9. It’s a near-perfect evenly matched dance between triumph and heartbreak, the kind only true warriors of the 64 squares can experience.
Known for wielding some daring openings, David has a soft spot for the Scandinavian Defense and the King’s Pawn Opening Leonardis Variation. The latter boasts a respectable 55.56% win rate, while the former remains a fierce battleground with close to 47% success. But beware, the Alekhine’s Defense Scandinavian Variation seems to be David’s nemesis, standing undefeated against him with a perfect 0% win rate. Every hero has their kryptonite!
DavidGNB's style is a curious mix of patience and resilience. With an average of about 50 moves per win or loss, these games aren’t quick showdowns — they're epic duels where pieces tango and strategies unfold gracefully. Early resignation is a rarity for David (only 7.5%), showing a fighting spirit that refuses to give up prematurely, even if sometimes that pesky tilt factor of 6 creeps in.
Psychologically, David peaks at noon, posting a fantastic 100% win rate at 12 PM — apparently the perfect time to unleash chess genius, or at least avoid premature coffee spills. Saturdays and Wednesdays host David's battlefields most successfully, with win rates soaring above 58%. On the flip side, Thursdays can be... well, less kind.
The recent games tell a tale of grit and glory. Among the latest triumphs, David outsmarted andrewilli3 by winning on time with precision under pressure, executed a checkmate against mjukyt, and coaxed qwertyblow into resignation — a clean sweep marking a hot streak that fans surely celebrated. Losses have come, notably to ldze10 and alan_one, reminders that every chess journey includes lessons wrapped in defeat.
Opponents beware: DavidGNB holds flawless records against many challengers, including andrewilli3 and mjukyt (100% win rate). Yet, others like ldze10 remain elusive quarry, who have checked David's ambitions with the cold efficiency a master needs to overcome.
In conclusion, DavidGNB’s chess profile reads like a riveting novel: full of suspense, near misses, beautiful victories, and a stubborn refusal to back down. While the rating might not shake grandmasters just yet, the spirit, dedication, and quirky win/loss record make David a memorable character on the rapid chess battlefield. Here’s to many more games, more victories, and the occasional spectacular blunder—because without those, what fun is chess?
