Dibyendu Barua GM

Dibyendu Barua - Chess Grandmaster Extraordinaire

Meet Dibyendu Barua, a titan of the 64 squares and a Grandmaster proudly awarded by FIDE. Not just your average chess player, Dibyendu isn't afraid to tango with tactics and waltz through openings like the renowned "Top Secret" — an opening so fierce it’s almost classified.

Rating & Style

In the blitz battlefield, Dibyendu’s peak rating soared to an impressive 2504 in April 2018. A speed demon with a flair for the dramatic, this Grandmaster boasts a 60% win rate using his signature secret opening – that’s 33 wins out of 55 games! When it comes to winning streaks, Dibyendu once smashed an unbeaten run of 10 games. Even in tough matches, his comeback rate is nearly 91%, which means if you think you've knocked a piece off, think again — the Grandmaster is coming back with a vengeance.

Psychological Edge & Quirks

Dibyendu knows his best chess is played bright and early at 9 AM. With a tilt factor of a mere 5, he’s cooler than a winter morning in Siberia. Interestingly, Mondays are his lucky days, bagging a whopping over 90% win rate. But Thursdays? Not so much — the struggle is real with only about 27% wins! Afternoon plays at 3 PM? Let's just say Dibyendu takes that time to perfect his coffee, since that’s when his win rate slips to zero.

Playing Style

His play is an intriguing mix of patience and persistence: on average, winning games take him around 72 moves, proving he enjoys a drawn-out strategic battle. White or Black, Dibyendu doesn’t discriminate — winning slightly more with White (64%) but comfortably representing Black with 56%. And if you think resignation is a sign of surrender, think again: Dibyendu both wins and loses on resignation, showing he’s not afraid to play mind games till the bitter end.

Record vs Opponents

When Dibyendu plays his most frequent sparring partner vicoy25, he comes out on top around 62% of the time — good luck trying to crack that defense! He’s undefeated against opponents like d23z, ronnyluq, yantakarta, and even artichaud with a perfect 100% win rate. However, against some fierce competitors like chessqueen, his winning strike dips to a humble 20%, reminding us even Grandmasters have nemeses.

Recent Glories and Stumbles

His last blitz victory was a masterpiece of resignation tactics, sealing the deal against vicoy25 with the classic Alekhine’s Defense. Just a few days prior, he delighted spectators by delivering a checkmate with perfect precision against ChessQueen – proving that sometimes, the queen isn’t the ultimate power on the board.

But hey, even a Grandmaster has off days: recently, he suffered a resignation loss to qwerty675564 in an intense match involving the Trompowsky Attack. And angelsfire777 managed to get the better of Dibyendu twice in swift battles. No shame here — even Magnus blunders sometimes.

Final Check

Dibyendu Barua is a chess warrior who battles not just for points but for the beauty of the game. Whether grinding in long, strategic endgames or blitzing through opponents with lightning speed, this Grandmaster is a true artist on the board. Keep your eyes peeled — this chess legend might just have another surprise move up his sleeve.
