Luis Aguirre
Meet Luis Aguirre, also known by his chess alias dhbzst, a rapid-fire strategist who’s been shaking up boards since 2021. His rating journey reads like a rollercoaster—peaking at 721 in rapid chess before settling into a steady groove around the mid-400s. Luis has a knack for the King's Pawn Opening King's Knight Variation, boasting an impressive win rate over 80%, and knows a thing or two about the Pirc Defense Modern Defense Geller System where he wins 80% of the time. Clearly, he’s not afraid to throw some unorthodox punches!
Luis’s style is a delightful cocktail of steady endgames and tactical fireworks. Expect long battles on the board, with an average of 48 moves per win and over 61 moves per loss—chess marathons are his specialty. His comeback rate is a jaw-dropping 81%, proving that even when the pieces look grim, Luis fights back fiercely.
When to catch Luis at his best? According to his numbers, he’s a champion around 3 PM, with a 100% win rate at that hour, and he’s particularly deadly on Tuesdays with nearly 58% wins across games. Beware if you play him at 8 or 10 AM either—perfect hours where he seems to have a Midas touch!
Despite some battles lost, Luis rarely throws in the towel early, resigning in just about 2% of his games. He prefers to fight until the bitter end or checkmate—showing true chess grit. And trust him, when he delivers a checkmate, it’s often a poetic one, like the one on May 30, 2025, where he finished with a neat Scandinavian Defense victory featuring a surprising bishop move that left his opponent stunned.
Luis’s win/loss record paints the picture of a fierce competitor with a slight edge in rapid chess: 73 wins to 71 losses, plus a few draws thrown in for good measure. Bullet and blitz have been more challenging, but he keeps swinging—because every loss is just a prelude to the next big win.
Off the board, Luis enjoys testing a variety of openings, leaning into the Queen’s Pawn and King’s Pawn lines with a curious mix of classical and modern twists. His favorite opponents? Well, he’s undefeated against modernl0ve and pourleplaisir42, so watch out if you bear those names!
In short, Luis Aguirre is a passionate chess warrior who blends perseverance, a flair for dramatic comebacks, and strategic depth in every game – all served with a dash of unpredictability. His motto? “Checkmate by any means necessary, preferably with style.”
