Rakesh K Jena: International Master and Chess Maestro
Meet Rakesh K Jena, also known by the username imrk_64, a chess player whose game is as sharp as his wit (and possibly his opening repertoire is a top secret!). Officially recognized as an International Master by FIDE, Rakesh has consistently dazzled opponents across Blitz, Bullet, and Rapid formats.
Since his early rated games in 2016, where his Blitz rating started near 1899 and Bullet rating was a sprightly 2123, Rakesh has climbed steadily, peaking at a Blitz rating over 2700 in 2020 — no small feat for someone not wielding a wand but just a knight and bishop! His Bullet and Rapid prowess are equally formidable, with peak Bullet rating touching 2690 and Rapid hovering near 2400+, showing his versatility in speed and strategy.
Rakesh’s style is both resilient and tactical. With a comeback rate of 87.56%, a win rate after losing a piece at a stunning 100%, and an endgame frequency exceeding 70%, this player refuses to roll over—he battles on, squeezing victories from even the tightest positions. His average winning games stretch deep with about 68 moves, proving he's not just a fast starter but a marathon finisher.
His record shows a love for the unknown — over 250 games in Blitz and 400 in Bullet under "Unknown Opening" — maybe he's a fan of mystery, or he just likes keeping his opponents guessing! Fun fact: his longest winning streak is an impressive 15 consecutive games, so it’s safe to say if you play him, beware the streak!
Off the board, Rakesh’s psychological tilt factor is modest (only 9%), indicating a cool-headed competitor who doesn't let frustration cramp his style. While he may not always dominate casual games with the same ferocity (rated vs casual win difference -14.75%), it’s in competitive rated battles that he truly shines.
When does he play best? Well, be warned if you challenge him around 4-5 AM or between 16:00 and 17:00 hours — those are his most lethal hours with win rates surpassing 70%! Clearly, either coffee or sheer chess genius fuels these prime hours.
Rakesh K Jena is a player with serious credentials, tremendous resilience, and a penchant for surprises. A chess aficionado's delight and opponent's nightmare, he epitomizes the thrilling tension and beauty of chess. If chess were a drama, Rakesh would be the star actor who delivers a stunning climax every time!
