Jakub Gmyr - The Undercover Chess Warrior

Jakub Gmyr, known around the chessboard as jakubgmyr, is a player who embodies the very spirit of perseverance and tactical flair — even if his ratings suggest he’s still in the trenches of chess glory.

Rating and Play Style

Jakub’s rapid rating soared from a humble 197 in early 2020 to a personal best of 601 in 2022. His daily battles are a bit fiercer, peaking at 635, while his bullet games unleash speedier moves clocking in at a solid 576.

His preferred opening is ninja-level Top Secret (no spoilers!), with a remarkable 75% win rate in daily and a respectable 37.5% in rapid. Jakub's comeback skill is no joke either — with a 60% comeback rate and a 100% win rate after losing a piece, proving he's not one to crumble under pressure.

The Record

• Rapid: 3 wins, 5 losses
• Daily: 6 wins, 1 loss, 1 draw
• Bullet: 1 win, 4 losses

Not bad for a warrior who sometimes faces foes like anetaceltner, against whom he boasts an 80% win rate, and aiozz, a perfect 100%. Against czernikowsqa, though… well, let’s say it’s a learning curve with just 11.11% victories.

The Style

Playing both sides of the board, Jakub's best results come when holding the black pieces, boasting a 60% win rate, while white pieces bring a challenging 36.36%. He’s a patient strategist, averaging around 49 moves in wins, taking his time to set tactical traps and sneak in checkmates.

Memorable Games

One recent gem was a spectacular daily game on March 19, 2022, where Jakub executed a perfectly timed checkmate using the Three Knights Opening. And remember the match against anetaceltner on March 24, 2022? That Sicilian Defense battle ended with Jakub’s flawless checkmate — a testament to his enduring focus and sneaky tactics.

In Conclusion

Jakub Gmyr might not have the grandmaster title on his mantle yet, but his chess journey is filled with heart, hustle, and the hunger to improve. Maybe his tactics are "Top Secret" for a reason, or maybe he’s just waiting to surprise us all with a grand slam victory. If you see jakubgmyr online, beware — he’s quietly sharpening his pieces for the next deadly strike!
