Abdel Ghany - aka "ghenwa22"
Abdel Ghany, known online as ghenwa22, is a chess player with an intriguing mix of tactical flair and resilience. With a peak Bullet rating soaring to 645 in May 2025 and an even prouder Rapid rating high of 707 earlier that year, Abdel proves that quick thinking isn’t just for morning coffee runs.
Playing Style & Strengths
Abdel’s style is a cocktail of patience and aggression, with an average of around 55 moves per win and the mental stamina to stick around for the endgame more than half the time. Early resignations are rare (under 3%) because giving up isn’t in this player's vocabulary — unless the coffee runs dry.
Remarkably, Abdel boasts a 73% comeback rate after falling behind, showing a determination that makes opponents sweat. Whether wielding the White or Black pieces, winning chances remain strong, with win rates of about 56% and 52% respectively.
Favorite Openings & Battles
In Bullet chess, Abdel enjoys the classic King’s Pawn Opening and squares off confidently in the Four Knights Game Scotch Variation Accepted, where the win rate hits an impressive 78%. Other crowd favorites include the Scandinavian Defense and Italian variations — openings that help set the stage for quick combos or subtle positional squeezes.
Rapid games reveal mixed fortunes with the Four Knights Italian opening (low 14% win rate), but Abdel compensates with strong showings in the Scotch Variation and King's Pawn variations, proving adaptability in longer time controls.
Competitive Stats & Quirks
- Total Wins roughly: Bullet: 92, Blitz: 97, Rapid: 20
- Longest winning streak: A blinding run of 11 games
- Current losing streak: 2 games (everyone hits a rough day!)
- Wins with checkmate: 61 times, showing Abdel knows how to deliver the knockout punch.
Timing is Everything
Abdel is a night owl warrior, with a staggering 100% win rate at 4 AM — clearly the witching hour fuels genius moves! Saturdays and Thursdays are personal lucky days, boasting win rates above 60%, while afternoons sometimes bring the odd hiccup (15% win rate at 2 PM).
Recent Notable Game
Just recently, Abdel scored a spectacular checkmate victory over “simants” in a Bullet game, where the final move was sharp enough to make a knight blush. Despite some recent losses by checkmate as well, ghenwa22 remains a formidable competitor who rises again like a phoenix from the ashes of timeouts and blunders.
In Summary
Abdel Ghany is the kind of player who mixes grit with grace, knows when to attack or defend, and has enough chess armor to shrug off setbacks. Whether blitzing through puzzles or grinding out rapid endgames, "ghenwa22" keeps fans entertained and opponents guessing. Don’t be fooled by the rating numbers — there’s always room for a bold surprise on the board!
