Eugene Perelshteyn GM

Grandmaster Eugene Perelshteyn

Eugene Perelshteyn is a chess Grandmaster who blends sharp tactics with a dash of wizardry on the 64 squares. Known for his fierce blitz performances, Eugene boasts an impressive peak blitz rating of 2597 achieved in April 2020 – a number that might just be the secret to unlocking the mysteries of the chess universe.

From a humble bullet rating of 1200 in 2011 to unstoppable blitz domination, Eugene’s journey is a tale of grit, strategy, and probably blinking faster than the average opponent. With a win rate exceeding 84% in blitz games using his "Top Secret" opening (which, naturally, remains undisclosed), Eugene’s opponents often find themselves outfoxed before they even realize what hit them.

One of his proudest records is a jaw-dropping 44 game winning streak, proving that once Eugene locks onto a goal, he’s nearly unstoppable. Even with an early resignation rate of just over 5%, this grandmaster knows when a position is hopeless – exhibiting both humility and sharp judgment.

Eugene’s endgame prowess is superb, appearing in 67.53% of his games – because what is chess if not a thrilling fight to the final squares? Average moves per win hover near 63, indicating deep, strategic battles rather than quick checkmates (though those happen, too).

Psychologically resilient, Eugene exhibits a strong comeback rate of 75.85% after a setback, and boasts an 80% win rate even after losing a piece – making him a nightmare opponent for anyone hoping to capitalize on an early mistake.

Did we mention he’s also a master of timing? Eugene’s most lucky hours on the board include late evenings and even midnight (his best time of day to play), when most mere mortals are busy counting sheep.

Off the board, Eugene might just be plotting chess moves in his sleep or penning strategies for his next epic win. One of his recent brilliant victories on Chess.com featured the English Opening where he gracefully converted a complex middle game into a checkmate by resignation.

If you’re lucky enough to face him, beware: the man known online as EugenePerelshteyn doesn’t just play chess – he dances with it, making every game a captivating saga. Prepare for smart moves, unexpected tactics, and maybe a little bit of Grandmaster magic.
