International Master Рустам Кайырбеков (Kaiyrbekov)
Known to friends (and foes) as Kaiyrbekov, Рустам Кайырбеков is not your average chess player.
Holding the prestigious title of International Master from FIDE, Рустам has navigated
the chessboard’s intricate labyrinth with a mix of tenacity, tactical wizardry, and occasional
bouts of creative madness.
Rating Rollercoaster and Statistics
From blitz storms to rapid fire and bullet battles, Kaiyrbekov has seen it all. His peak blitz rating soared to an impressive 2504 in June 2019,
a testament to his lightning-fast calculation and nerves of steel. Rapid is no slouch either — topping out at 2360 in 2020 — while his bullet skills peaked just above
2300. On daily chess platforms, he keeps things steady at the max 2000 rating.
Over thousands of games, Kaiyrbekov has amassed:
- Blitz: 1470 wins, 1328 losses, 179 draws (about 49.4% win rate)
- Rapid: 160 wins, 64 losses, 12 draws (around 67.8% win rate — rapid suits him well!)
- Bullet: 534 wins, 457 losses, 46 draws
- Daily: 5 wins, 18 losses — clearly, sometimes life gets in the way of that long think!
Playing Style: Strategist with a Punch
With an average winning game lasting around 76 moves, and losses slightly longer, Рустам exhibits patience and fighting spirit. His Endgame Frequency is a whopping 82%, meaning he loves to duke it out till the very end.
Early resignations are rare (only 3.7%), showing resilience even in tough positions.
The psychological warrior that he is, he has an impressive 83.7% comeback rate when down — nothing like being the underdog and snatching victory from the jaws of defeat! However, his Tilt Factor at 19 suggests that like all mortals, even he can feel the heat of a brutal blunder now and then.
Signature Moments & Recent Battles
Recently, Рустам clinched a fine victory via checkmate in a quick tactical tussle on 26 Sept 2023 — a real crowd-pleaser showcasing his sharp eye for opportunities. Yet, even masters have off days,
and his latest loss was a battle lost on time in the stalwart world of daily chess, reminding us all that patience is as vital as strategy.
Noteworthy Tidbits
- White pieces bring him slightly better luck (52.46% win rate) than black (49.07%) — go figure!

In the giant chess arena, where pawns and kings wage their eternal war, Рустам Кайырбеков stands as a fierce combatant and ever-learning tactician.
