Jesús (aka JesusRL95) - The Relentless Rapid Racer
Jesús, the clever chess warrior behind the username JesusRL95, is a player who clearly refuses to be pigeonholed. With a peak rapid rating nudging just shy of 1000 in April 2025, Jesús blends perseverance with a sprinkle of cunning, often maneuvering through fierce battles that last an average of 64 moves when winning (and a grueling 75 when losing – showing true grit in defeat!).
Chess Style and Preferences
Jesús loves a long game; his endgame frequency is a towering 69%. He isn't shy about early resignations but keeps that rate under 0.5%, proving that quitting isn't really his style. His white pieces bring him a slight edge over black, winning just over 50% of the time. A tactical comeback artist, Jesús boasts a 65% comeback rate, meaning if he’s down a piece, don't count him out just yet!
Opening Moves: Secret to Success?
Jesús’s secret weapon in rapid games is intriguingly named “Top Secret”, despite having a modest sub-50% win rate there. For those who prefer something a bit more classic and reliable, the Reti Opening shines bright with a solid 57.5% win rate, and the Nimzowitsch Defense also brings him over 55% victories. These choices show that he’s not just a brute-forcing tactician — he’s got some serious strategic depth!
Recent Battles
Jesús has had a mixed bag of results lately, featuring thrilling wins and occasional setbacks. His latest victory was a masterstroke played with the Nimzowitsch-Larsen Attack against bishopmus, winning convincingly by resignation. Not one to be discouraged, he also survived the heat against opponents like martin101984 with a precise checkmate finish, proving that when in form, Jesús can deliver the knockout punch.
Stats to Brag About (or Cry Over)

Fun Facts
Jesús’s best time to play is around 3 AM — a true night owl catching opponents while they snooze. With an average win rate higher after losing a piece than many, he’s a bit like a phoenix rising from tactical ashes. If chess had a “never say die” award, Jesús would be a top contender.
Whether it’s a casual game or a nerve-wracking rated match, Jesús’s games promise drama, strategy, and a little je ne sais quoi that keeps opponents guessing — and sometimes resigning rather quickly!
