Prince Kumar (Princesgh8): The Relentless Chess Adventurer
Meet Prince Kumar, known on the chessboard as Princesgh8, a player whose passion for the game lights up every time control, from the lightning-fast bullet matches to the more ponderous daily games. While his ratings may suggest a rollercoaster ride—peaking at a surprising 317 in bullet, 656 in rapid, 296 in blitz, and a solid 859 in daily—it's Prince's fearless approach to the game that truly captivates.
Early Career and Playing Style
Prince dives into the fray with characteristic zeal, wielding the King's Pawn openings like a knight swings his sword. His bullet games reveal a wild ride: a peak rating of 317 followed by a dramatic drop, but don’t be fooled—this is the sign of a player who thrives on action and thrills more than quiet consistency. His strongest suit shines in rapid chess, where he reached a peak of 656, showing he can think on his feet when given a tad longer than bullet blinks allow.
Favorite Openings & Tactical Flair
If you ever face Prince across the board, expect an eclectic mix of gambits and classic lines. He’s fond of the King's Pawn Opening and its King's Knight Variation, maintaining a respectable win rate near 50%. He sprinkles in surprises like the Englund Gambit and Bishop's Opening, sporting a nifty 50% win ratio on both in bullet games. Prince's blitz performance, though less prolific, suggests moments of brilliance, especially with the King’s Knight Variation boasting a perfect winning record.
On The Board: Strengths & Quirks

- The art of the speedy resignation: With an early resignation rate of just 2.81%, he almost never quits—unless the coffee spills.
- The wait game: His average winning game clocks in around 28 moves, while losses tend to drag on to 37 moves—he battles hard, even if the finish isn’t always in his favor.

Recent Battles & Memorable Games
Prince’s recent games are a vivid tapestry of victory and defeat, including a thrilling victory versus erinmunishi, ending on a neat checkmate in a French Defense opening.
At the same time, he learned hard lessons when under the pressure of opponents like FireLadyPushpa in a timed game.
