Diego Jimenez - The Chess Enthusiast a.k.a. ErPutex
Meet Diego Jimenez, the resilient chess warrior who proves that persistence beats perfection every time. While his rapid rating peaked at a modest 1055 in early 2021, Diego’s journey is far from a sprint—it's a marathon filled with tactical adventures, amusing blunders, and glorious comebacks. Known in the chess circles as ErPutex, he’s the player who knows how to keep it interesting on the board and off.
Playing Style & Highlights
Diego plays with a strategic flair that leans heavily into the Queens Pawn Opening and the English Opening Anglo Scandinavian Defense, boasting some of his highest win rates around 58% and 60% respectively. If you’re hoping to catch him off guard, be warned: his comeback rate is an impressive 75.5%—he treats losing a piece like a plot twist in a thriller, turning potential disaster into drama and victory.
With an average of about 53 moves per win, Diego’s games tend to be marathons where patience and endurance pay off. And if the pressure mounts? His tilt factor is low (only 11), so he’s unlikely to throw his queen in frustration anytime soon.
