Piotr Giejsztowt: The Calculating Strategist

Meet Piotr Giejsztowt, known online by the mysterious username fgjxfngc. A chess player whose journey resembles a rollercoaster more than a straight line, Piotr’s recent rating saga tells a humorous yet inspiring story of resilience, learning, and quirky tactical flair.

Career Highlights & Style

Piotr’s peak ratings—1552 in Rapid, 894 in Blitz, and an ambitious 288 in Bullet—reflect a player who takes the game seriously but is not afraid to experiment and sometimes spectacularly tumble. With a longest winning streak of 6 games and a soul-crushing longest losing streak of 9, he’s tasted the sweet victories and the bitter defeats alike. Piotr tends to resign early about 6.25% of the time, proving he knows when it’s time to save the brain cells for the next battle.

Favorite Openings

Piotr embraces the Queens Pawn Opening with a special fondness for the Zukertort Chigorin Variation, despite a rough patch there (win rate around 9% in Rapid). Never one to shy away from complexity, he’s also played the Accelerated London System, Indian and Bishops Openings, often mixing defense and aggressive positional play. Blitz showcases a more optimistic win rate in these lines – sometimes the faster the clock, the sharper the moves!

Combat Stats

• Rapid Record: 23 wins, 59 losses, 3 draws
• Blitz Record: 72 wins, 76 losses, 4 draws
• Bullet Record: 10 wins, 9 losses, 0 draws

Not one to shy away from a fight, Piotr tends to see almost 50 moves per game whether winning or losing—clearly a battler who loves the dance of middlegame and endgame. His comeback rate after losing a piece is a remarkable 73%, a testament to his fighting spirit and tactical awareness!

Psychological Quirks & Playing Time

Piotr’s tilt factor is a modest 9 (not perfect, but nobody’s perfect), and his best time of day to play is 9 AM—morning coffee and brain toxin clearance combined. He's surprisingly more successful when facing lower-rated opponents (winning 61% vs them) but struggles against equals (0% win rate, ouch!).

Notable Recent Game

In a memorable 2024 game against IMItroy, Piotr demonstrated sly defensive skills in the Bishops Opening Boi Variation, ultimately forcing resignation after a complex tactical sequence. Though the ratings on that night were modest (around 500!), Piotr's tenacity shone through, proving it’s not always about the numbers but the heart of the game.

Final Thoughts

Piotr Giejsztowt’s chess tale is one of persistence, growth, and a little bit of chaos—qualities every aspiring chess player knows well. Whether storming through bullet games with perfect openings or carefully orchestrating a rapid endgame, Piotr plays with passion, learning with every move, and entertaining all who watch his games unfold.
