Gerasimenyuk Mikhail
Gerasimenyuk Mikhail, known online as Gerasimenyuk_Miha, is a FIDE Master with a remarkably energetic online chess career. The profile shows a player who has spent years testing ideas, sharpening tactics, and occasionally asking the clock to make the final move.
Playing Style
Gerasimenyuk is most comfortable in long-form Daily chess, where careful calculation has room to breathe. The statistics also reveal a combative personality: games frequently reach the endgame, while a 90.15% comeback rate suggests that being down material is treated less as a disaster and more as an invitation to become inconvenient.
- Longest recorded winning streak: 27 games
- Endgames appear in approximately 66% of games
- Most common checking piece: the queen
- White has been the more productive side overall
Opening Repertoire
The Scandinavian Defense is a major feature of Gerasimenyuk's repertoire, especially with Black. In Daily chess, it has produced a particularly strong record. As White, the Queen's Pawn Game: Torre Attack and Döry Defense are among the most frequently used choices, giving the opening phase a distinctly practical and slightly stubborn character.
There is also plenty of variety, including the Caro-Kann Defense, East Indian Defense, Slav Defense, and several gambits. In other words, the opening book is less a book and more a well-stocked chess cupboard.
Career Snapshot
Gerasimenyuk's online record stretches from 2017 onward and includes an enormous number of bullet and blitz games alongside a smaller, more deliberate Daily chess collection. The profile combines tactical ambition with endurance, reflected in average decisive games of more than 60 moves and a strong tendency to keep fighting after the position appears to be misbehaving.
Legacy at the Board
As a FIDE Master, Gerasimenyuk Mikhail brings title-level chess strength to every time control, but the statistics suggest that the real signature is persistence. Whether launching a queen check, entering a long endgame, or staging yet another comeback, Gerasimenyuk_Miha is rarely interested in making the opponent's evening easy.
