Meet pizza-andtamales, a chess warrior with a quirky username and an even quirkier playing style. This player has been conquering boards across various time controls in 2025, serving up spicy openings with a hint of savory tactics.

Rating Journey & Achievements

With over 400 Rapid games and significant activity in Blitz and Daily formats, this player is truly devoted to the game and likely enjoys both quick snacks and marathon tamale feasts.

Playing Style & Tactics

Famed for early resignation rate of about 7%, pizza-andtamales prefers finishing games decisively rather than dragging out the agony—because who has time when there’s pizza waiting? Their average moves per win hover just above 50, suggesting a balanced mix of patience and aggression.

With a comeback rate around 65%, pizza-andtamales exhibits true grit, refusing to let a lost piece or position dampen the fiery spirit.

Memorable Matches & Opponents

However, there’s one pesky rival — tg1018 — who manages to keep the win rate painfully low at just under 10%. Even chess geniuses have their kryptonite!

The latest victories feature bold tactical finishes including a recent checkmate achieved with panache in a daily game, and an aggressive final game where the opponent practically surrendered to pizza-andtamales’ relentless pressure.

Psychological & Temporal Preferences

Beware the tilt factor of 7—pizza-andtamales isn’t immune to losing streaks and momentary chess frustration, but the real magic happens during the quieter hours, especially around 9 AM, when their win rate peaks. Evidently, this player likes to sharpen their mind with a tactical breakfast.

Summary
