Profile Summary: Rahman Syed Mahfuzur (Emon005)
Meet Rahman Syed Mahfuzur, affectionately known by their username Emon005 in the chess cosmos. A proud FIDE Master, Rahman has carved a niche in the world of chess with a blend of tactical genius and a touch of creative madness that leaves opponents scratching their heads. If chess were a battlefield, Rahman is the general who commands with precision, yet sometimes throws in a delightful curveball just to keep the game spicy.
From blitz to bullet to rapid, Rahman's ratings have scaled the peaks and navigated valleys like a seasoned mountaineer. Their Blitz peak rating soared to an impressive 2166, while their bullet games have danced to a high of 2129. Not one to shy away from a challenge, Rahman's win rates hover around a commendable 60-70% in their favorite time formats — the kind of stats that make other players reconsider their strategy (or just resign immediately).
Speaking of strategy, Rahman's style is wonderfully unpredictable. With nearly 70% endgame frequency, they tend to drag battles deep into the zone where only nerves of steel survive. An early resignation rate below 10%? Clearly, Rahman prefers fighting to the bitter end — unless the coffee runs out (then all bets might be off).
Their longest winning streak was a jaw-dropping 32 games — that's nearly a grandmaster-level streak of dominance! But don’t think it’s all smooth sailing; Rahman has a tilt factor of 17, suggesting a pinch of passion and probably a few facepalms along the way. The best time to catch Rahman at the board? At 5 AM, when the mind is sharp and the opponent is probably still snoozing.
Rahman is also known for an almost supernatural comeback rate of 77%, bravely turning the tide after losing pieces — a true phoenix rising from the ashes on the chess battlefield.

In their latest Chess960 exploits, Rahman dazzled with victories achieved on time, a testament to not just skill but also endurance and clock management. Even when luck wasn’t on their side, the resilience shown is exemplary — sometimes the opponent gets lucky, but Rahman’s spirit never flags.
Fun Fact
It’s rumored that Rahman’s secret opening preparation is so classified it’s simply dubbed "Top Secret" — a fitting codename for a player whose games are filled with surprises and innovation.
Whether you're a fan, a fellow competitor, or just a chess enthusiast, Rahman Syed Mahfuzur is a player to watch: combining tactical wizardry with an undying fighting spirit and a dash of humor that makes chess not just a game, but a thrilling story unfolding move by move.
Personalized Feedback for Rahman Syed Mahfuzur (a.k.a. “Emon005”)
1. What you’re already doing well
- Tactical Vision: Your live-game victories show sharp calculation. In the Scandinavian miniature you found the forcing line 8…Nd3+ followed by 10…Nxe1 and converted smoothly. Great use of double-attacks and forcing moves.
- Opening Variety: You’re willing to play both 1…d5 against 1.e4 (Scandinavian) and counter-gambits against 1.d4, avoiding predictability.
- Confidence against higher-rated players: Beating opponents such as zbigniew wieczorek (2314) proves you can handle pressure.
2. Biggest growth areas
- Time Management
• All five recent Daily losses were on time. You’re giving away full points before a single tactical mistake occurs.
• Even in blitz you occasionally drift under 10 s and miss clean mates.
Target: Cut your time-forfeit rate below 5 % this month. (Current “timeouts” trend is visible in .) - Chess960 Fundamentals
• Early moves often ignore development and king safety.
• Because castling rights differ, copying classical openings doesn’t work. Learn generic principles: central pawn one-steps, quick minor-piece deployment, and early king evacuation. - Opening Structure vs 1.d4
• In the Accelerated London game you played …f6 and …Kf7; this held tactically, but the structure was shaky.
• Consider sounder setups (e.g. the Slav or Queen’s Gambit Accepted) to avoid long-term weaknesses.
3. Action plan (next 4 weeks)
| Week | Focus | Exercise |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Daily-game routine | • Set two phone alarms each day. • Use conditional moves for forced replies. |
| 2 | Chess960 openings | • Play 10 unrated 960 games; in each, spend first 3 moves checking king-side castling path. • Watch for central pawn pushes & fast bishops. |
| 3 | Solid vs 1.d4 | • Build a 10-move “core” repertoire file (Slav or QGA). • Drill with 15 puzzles from that structure. |
| 4 | Blitz end-games | • Solve 20 king-and-pawn studies to finish games quickly and avoid flagging. |
