Life in chess isn’t all sunshine and checkmates. Jimmy’s endured some tough runs, including a hearty 9-game losing streak, but he’s as resilient as a chess pawn pushing towards promotion. With 22 wins by timeout and 20 wins earned by resignation, his games end as much by grit as by strategy.

Most recently, Jimmy triumphed over JollyGoodShow23 in a Van't Kruijs Opening tussle, winning by resignation after a nerve-wracking 11-move skirmish. That game perfectly shows his knack for spotting opportunities, even when the clock is ticking.

His win rates vary throughout the week but peak surprisingly on Sundays (~50%), probably thanks to weekend relaxation and extra coffee.
