George Guirguis

Profile Summary: George Guirguis (aka GorgeGurguis)

Meet George Guirguis, a chess player whose rating journey is as colorful and unpredictable as a Queen's Gambit episode—and perhaps a bit more entertaining. GorgeGurguis has dabbled in every pace of chess from bullet blizzard storms to the leisurely strolls of daily games, proving versatility (and persistence) with a career that balances exciting wins with humbling defeats.

Rating Highlights

• Peak Blitz Rating: 869 (June 2023) - That was the month George was on fire... until he was not.
• Peak Rapid Rating: 625 (March 2023) - The rapid games where strategic eyesight met practical struggles.
• Peak Bullet Rating: 566 (April 2025) - Lightning speed, sometimes perfect, sometimes a bit like a thunderclap on one’s king.
• Peak Daily Rating: 677 (May 2025) - Slow, calculated, and victorious enough to keep the coffee hot.

Playing Style & Stats

George is known for a patient chess strategy, with games averaging about 57 moves to win and 64 moves to learn from losses. His endgame frequency is impressively high at 61%, because who said chess ends quickly? Sometimes, it’s a saga. His psychological resilience is notable: a comeback rate of 65% means George doesn’t just quit after losing a piece — he fights back.

However, his early resignation rate stands at a modest 3.45%, so don’t expect him to throw in the towel too quickly… unless it’s against superhumanly pesky opponents like SuperIdol596 or Qualityy_t1, both of whom have proven quite challenging.

Opening Choices

The legendary "Top Secret" opening remains a mystery to all, especially given George’s record of 10 wins and 24 losses—clearly a love-hate relationship. Other secret weapons include the Unknown Opening with a respectable 50% win rate in Blitz, and the Queens Pawn Opening Zukertort Chigorin Variation where victory is 100% (albeit from just one game—don’t get too excited).

Win-Loss Record (All Time)

• Blitz: 21 Wins, 35 Losses, 8 Draws
• Rapid: 44 Wins, 61 Losses, 25 Draws
• Bullet: 9 Wins, 20 Losses, 1 Draw
• Daily: 1 Win, 0 Losses, 0 Draws

Famous Opponents

George most frequently faces sonicspadd (53 games) and redacted14 (43 games). It’s a mixed bag: a stubborn warrior against sonicspadd with only a 24.5% win rate but less lucky when facing redacted14 at under 14%. The good news? Against some challengers like horaceknightley2 and bruhbacon2, George boasts a perfect 100% win rate. Take that, chess rivals!

Memorable Moment

One of George’s most recent triumphs was on May 6, 2025, using the Englund Gambit, where GorgeGurguis outmaneuvered ZacTheTackwastaken in a swift four-move romp that ended on time victory. A quick checkmate is music to any player’s ears—or at least a well-played timeout!

The Fun Fact

If you’re looking to catch GorgeGurguis at his best, set your alarms for 9 AM—his “Best Time of Day to Play”—when his win rate spikes. But beware: his longest streaks show he's no stranger to both eight-game winning flights of fancy and eight-game rough patches alike. Chess, much like life, is a rollercoaster for George.

In summary: GorgeGurguis is a passionate player who mixes strategy, resilience, and a good sense of humor to enjoy the game, no matter if he's on top or turning blunders into learning moments. Keep your kings safe — and your senses sharp — when facing him!
