Bêtum LAWSON

Bêtum LAWSON (aka RodosD21)

Meet Bêtum LAWSON, a rapid chess warrior with a rollercoaster rating journey, reaching a peak of 665 in May 2025. If chess ratings were mood swings, Bêtum would be a star — bouncing from a humble 164 to a roaring 665 in just a few months. Clearly, this player knows how to turn things around faster than you can say "checkmate!"

With 256 wins, 219 losses, and 14 draws in rapid chess, Bêtum might not yet be a grandmaster, but certainly a grand entertainer. Known for an eclectic opening repertoire mysteriously labeled "Top Secret" (probably because even Bêtum doesn’t quite remember the exact moves), their win-rate there is a respectable 51.7%. French Defense fans, rejoice! Bêtum boasts a perfect 100% record in one nifty subtype of it — though only over three games. Talk about precision!

Strategy-wise, Bêtum sometimes prefers the scenic route: average games won last about 44 moves, but losses linger over 52, suggesting a stubborn will to fight on, or perhaps an aversion to quick surrenders. Early resignations are rare (6.4%), proving this player prefers battle over retreat – except when the coffee runs out.

Psychological quirks add charm: their “tilt factor” is a modest 8, meaning frustration is kept mostly in check, except maybe when the wifi drops. The best time to challenge Bêtum? Around 9 PM, when their win rate skyrockets to nearly 69%. Night owls, consider this your golden hour to witness tactical fireworks.

Recent games have shown Bêtum’s grit. In a thrilling last victory against AlsenYT, Bêtum masterfully leveraged the English Opening into a resignation win after a tense 35 moves that could rival a chess thriller movie. Even losses are lessons—take the nail-biting French Defense Knight Variation loss by checkmate to Dahlou, proving every defeat is just the prologue to a comeback.

Opponents beware: some lucky foes like "tutoriels" or "vozzolo" experienced a 100% defeat rate. Others such as "sathya1930" get a near-medal-winning 75% loss rate. But every game adds a stitch to the rich tapestry of Bêtum’s chess saga—full of strategy, surprises, and just a hint of mystery.

In summary, Bêtum LAWSON’s chess journey is a thrilling ride of ups, downs, and spectacular tactical plays. Whether you face this player at the board or follow their matches online, expect an engaging match filled with passion, persistence, and maybe a few sneaky moves that make you squint at the position twice.

Chess isn’t just a game for Bêtum, it’s a thrilling saga filled with surprising twists — just like their rating!
