Player Profile: Abraham (a.k.a. Saeed-3)
Meet Abraham – a chess player whose journey is as winding and captivating as a queen’s bold dash across the board. Starting with a humble Rapid rating of just 209 in early 2024, Abraham’s grit and determination saw a meteoric rise to a Rapid peak of 1518 by 2025. A true lover of the game, he’s logged over 1,400 Rapid games using a “Top Secret” opening strategy – which, frankly, sounds like a perfect cover for some sneaky checkmates.
When it comes to faster formats, Abraham’s no slouch either. His Bullet rating maxed out at 1386, boasting an impressive 87.5% win rate with the same mysterious opening, showing he’s got lightning-fast reflexes and a sharp mind. Blitz play has been a rollercoaster, but he’s still holding strong with a 40.7% win rate and a peak rating over 1500.
But what truly stands out about Abraham is his resilience and tactical prowess. With a comeback success rate of 75.58% and a flawless 100% win rate even after losing a piece, it’s clear he refuses to bow out early – unless, of course, it’s early resignation, which he rarely does (just 1.4% of games). His matches average around 60 moves per win, proving he loves a good chess marathon, battling deep into the endgame, where he thrives 63.83% of the time.
Abraham’s psychological game is as intriguing as his on-board tactics. With a tilt factor of 12, he might get a bit frustrated, but it never stops him from bouncing back with a vengeance. His win rates slightly favor playing White (51.66%) over Black (48.98%), but he’s versatile enough to keep opponents guessing.
Off the board, Abraham might just be plotting his next "Top Secret" opening or enjoying some well-deserved rest – possibly on a Friday or Tuesday, his statistically best days for wins! And if you catch him playing at 8 AM, watch out – that’s his magic hour with a stunning 63.46% win rate.
With a longest winning streak of 23 games, he has proven that he can be the king of the hill, at least until a sneaky opponent like “deepak_rangari” decides it's their turn (spoiler: deepak has yet to claim a victory against him).
In short, Abraham is not just a player—he’s a chess force of nature stalking the board with secret openings, a nearly unstoppable comeback spirit, and enough stamina to outlast many. Whether you call him Abraham or Saeed-3, facing him means expecting the unexpected.
