Jenny Qi – Woman FIDE Master Extraordinaire
Meet Jenny Qi, a chess warrior crowned with the prestigious Woman FIDE Master (WFM) title. Known online as JennyQi13, Jenny doesn’t just play chess; she practically converses with the 64 squares, often leaving opponents wondering if their pieces mysteriously moved on their own.
Since 2024, Jenny has been steadily climbing the rating ladder, smashing records across Rapid, Bullet, Blitz, and Daily formats. Her rapid rating soared from 1890 to a smashing 2065 by 2025, proving she’s no stranger to outsmarting opponents quickly and efficiently. In blitz, her peak rating hit a mighty 2206, because who doesn’t love a little lightning-fast checkmating?
With a total of 10 wins, 3 losses, and 2 draws in Rapid, 27 wins and 20 losses in Bullet, and an impressive 83 wins over 94 losses in Blitz, Jenny’s record tells a story of a player who battles fiercely until the last move. And with a longest winning streak of 7 games, she clearly knows how to channel that chess magic.
Jenny is famous for her loyalty to the "Top Secret" opening, which, as the name suggests, remains a mystery even to her fiercest rivals. This stealthy strategy has yielded an impressive win rate, especially in Rapid chess, where she wins about two-thirds of her games using it.
Her resilience? Off the charts. With an astounding 87.7% comeback rate and a 100% win rate after losing a piece, Jenny turns near-defeats into sweet victories – a true phoenix rising from the ashes of blundered pawns.
On a typical day, Jenny’s best moves come in the early morning hours or just after sunset, when most of us would be reaching for another cup of coffee rather than another queen sacrifice.
When not dismantling opponent’s defenses or refining her endgame (her endgame frequency is a remarkable 78.76%), Jenny enjoys the psychological battle – though she admits her tilt factor of 7 means sometimes the emotional rollercoaster is as exciting as the chess itself.
So, watch out on the virtual board – Jenny Qi is a master of both strategy and a little bit of mystery. If you face her, remember: it’s not just about the pieces you move, but the universe of mind games unfolding in every tick of the clock.
Hi Jenny Qi, here’s your personalised training report!
1. Quick Snapshot
- Current peak blitz rating: 2206 (2025-03-04).
- Your strongest time-window appears around late evening: see .
- Win-rate dips on Mondays & Fridays – check to confirm and plan lighter schedules then.
2. What You’re Doing Well
- Dynamic Counter-Play as Black. Recent victories against 2nf31-0, sean330 and thankfuifortune show confident use of …c5/…e5 breaks in Indian-Game structures.
- Tactical Awareness Under Time Pressure. Your win vs TheBarcaGuy featured a nice conversion with …c1=Q followed by precise queen manoeuvres despite mutual low clocks.
- Practical Opening Repertoire. With Black you reach familiar middlegames quickly (Indian setups vs d4, Sicilian-Taimanov vs e4) allowing early clock gains.
3. Key Improvement Themes
-
King Safety in Open Sicilians (as White).
In the loss to bigbuttminion you castled long but kept the a2–g8 diagonal weak and allowed …h5–h4 with tempo.
Action plan:- Re-examine move 7 Qf3 and 8 Qg3 in the Taimanov – engines suggest 7.Be2 or 7.f4 instead.
- Play through 10 mini-games starting from move 10 of that PGN, defending Black’s pawn storms.
-
Conversion Technique vs Lower-Rated Players.
Against aprildagreatknightmare you were two pawns up but lost after 29…Rxf3 tactics.
Action plan:- Adopt the “30-second safety check” routine: before every capture ask, “What changes on the next square?”
- Train with Puzzle Rush Survival; stop after each wrong answer and replay the position slowly.
-
Time Management in Winning Endgames.
Two recent bullet & 60-sec games were lost on time from winning endgames (see PGN vs yujiarun18).
Action plan:- Use increment formats (3 + 2 or 5 + 5) for 20 games to ingrain quick “pre-move” patterns like king-pawn-king shuffles.
- Practice the “Bane Endgame Drill”: start with K+P vs K and win with ≤15 seconds.
4. Opening Focus for the Next Two Weeks
| Colour | Current Choice | Next Step |
|---|---|---|
| White | London System / Taimanov Attack | Add 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nf3 as a fallback to avoid early …c5 hits. |
| Black vs e4 | Sicilian (Taimanov) | Prepare the sideline 6…Bb4 + …Nf6 to dodge 7.Qf3 lines. |
| Black vs d4 | Indian setups | Learn the early …c6 transposition to Slav if White avoids c4. |
5. Weekly Drill Schedule
- Mon / Wed: 20 tactical puzzles + analyse one loss (15 min each).
- Fri: 3 rapid games (10 + 5) focusing on calculation; annotate instantly.
- Weekend: Endgame drill set & review of 5 self-chosen master games with similar openings.
