Career Highlights & Playing Style

Denis's journey through rapid chess is a tale of grit and grind: 79 wins, 84 losses, and 8 draws out of 171 rapid games. Not one for slow, grinding games, Denis tends to seal games quicker when winning (around 39 moves) but battles longer and sometimes agonizingly when losing (over 64 moves).

Renowned for favoring the Van t Kruijs Opening in rapid games — clocking an impressive 90 battles in this opening alone — Denis has achieved nearly a 49% win rate there, defying skeptics who dismiss this quirky first move. Among other favorite weapons are variations of the French Defense, with win rates swinging dramatically from the optimistic 60% in the classic French Defense to a more humbling 0% in the Steiner Variation (yes, every chess warrior has their nemesis!).

Psychological Quirks and Tactics

Denis embraces the psychological rollercoaster with an enviable tilt factor of just 7, meaning he rarely lets losses rattle his mental fortress. Notorious for early resignations roughly 3.5% of the time, Denis wisely knows when to cut his losses and live to fight another day — a mature trait many beginners wish they mastered sooner.

Our hero’s greatest comfort hour is 11 AM, when the brain sparks fly and success rates soar. Oddly enough, his midnight to dawn performances (0-4 AM) hover around a mixed bag, proving that chess at odd hours really is a gamble.
