Jessie Kyrelle (Jessiechessgirl)
Jessie Kyrelle, known online as Jessiechessgirl, is a rapidly rising star in the chess world who plays with the intensity of a grandmaster and the unpredictability of a chessboard cat walking across the keys.
Rating and Performance
Since 2024, Jessie has climbed from humble beginnings around a 200 rapid rating to an impressive peak of 866 by May 2025 in Rapid chess, a testament to persistence, strategic thinking, and occasional magic. The journey hasn't always been smooth—with ratings bouncing between 190 and 795 before settling into the 600-700 range—but that's the charm of an evolving player who learns from every loss as much as from each victory.
In Blitz and Bullet formats, Jessie prefers taking it a bit slower (relative to bullet speed at least), peaking at 384 in Blitz and maxing out at 138 in Bullet chess — more of a rapid specialist who carefully keeps the bullet games for adrenaline spikes.
Playing Style & Tactics
Jessie plays with an average of about 49 moves per win in Rapid, showing endurance and a love for long, drawn-out battles rather than quick knocks. An early resignation rate of around 11.5% suggests that Jessie knows when to fold ’em, saving energy for the next challenge. With a comeback rate north of 65%, Jessie’s resilience shines, often turning setbacks into sensational victories.
White pieces bring a 50% win rate while Black holds a respectable 47.7%, showing Jessie’s balanced adaptability. But don’t mistake Jessie for a one-dimensional player; a modest 17% one-sided loss rate proves there’s usually a fight to the last pawn on the board.
Favorite Openings
A bit of mystery surrounds Jessie’s opening repertoire, with the intriguingly named Top Secret opening delivering almost half of all games — often with a nail-biting win rate close to 50%. When Jessie steps into classical territory, the King's Pawn Opening (Kings Knight Variation) and the aggressive Italian Game shine through, wielding win rates around 55-70%, proving that life (and chess) is better with a little fiery flair.
Notable Trends & Trivia
- Best time to play: 4 PM, perfect for coffee-fueled concentration sessions.
- Tilt factor: A moderate 9, so if losing three games in a row, don’t be surprised if Jessie momentarily contemplates becoming a professional Sudoku player.
- Longest winning streak: 12 games. That’s enough to impress even your toughest aunt at family dinners.
- Most recent notable victory: A strategic battle finished by resignation against saber-taj in May 2025, featuring classic maneuvering and tactical sharpness.
In Summary
