Glenn Bidari – The National Master Extraordinaire
Glenn Bidari, better known in the chess circuits as gbidari, proudly holds the esteemed title of National Master. With a chess journey spanning well over a decade since 2008, Glenn has battled through thousands of blitz, bullet, daily, and rapid games — proving that speed and strategy can coexist beautifully.
Whether it’s lightning-fast bullet games where the clock is enemy number one, or marathon daily games demanding deep calculation and patience, Glenn’s style adapts with impeccable finesse. Averaging well over 50% win rates on both white and black pieces, they shine especially in blitz and bullet play, maintaining a remarkable comeback rate of 88% and a win rate of nearly 100% after losing a piece. Talk about turning a blunder into a masterstroke!
Known for their resilience (longest winning streak of 37!), Glenn rarely surrenders early, although their early resignation rate sits at a humble 0.47%. They love to dance in the endgame arena — with an 81.35% endgame frequency, Glenn might just have whispered sweet nothings to their pawns during countless battles.
Through the years, Glenn’s blitz rating crescendoed from the high 1700s to a peak of 2459! Bullet and rapid ratings followed suit, hitting impressive highs that make opponents say, “Wait, is this the same person?”
Despite a tilt factor of 17 (because hey, even grandmasters sometimes get frustrated!), Glenn’s passion for the game remains unshaken, displaying psychological endurance worthy of a chess philosopher. Their opening repertoire remains Top Secret, no doubt a trick to keep challengers sweating in the preparation room.
When you play Glenn Bidari, be ready—not just for skilled tactics but for a journey full of strategic ups, thrilling comebacks, and maybe a humorous quip or two about how their opponent “forgot the bishop.” In the world of chess, Glenn is a master not only of the board but also of the heart and mind.
