Sidhartha Kumar Dash: The Chess Enigma
Meet Sidhartha Kumar Dash, a chess warrior whose game is as intriguing as a mystery novel and occasionally as chaotic as a cat walking across a chessboard. Known in the chess realm by the enigmatic alias sid00125, Sidhartha’s journey is nothing short of a roller-coaster ride through the ranks of Blitz, Rapid, and Bullet chess styles.
Rating Evolution: The Saga
Starting humbly back in 2019 with a Blitz rating just shy of 600 and a Bullet rating soaring at 742 (with only one game played — hey, everybody starts somewhere!), Sidhartha didn't stay put for long. By 2024, he had fast-forwarded to a Blitz peak of 928 and a Bullet peak of 723. His Rapid rating saw a quieter tale, cruising around the mid-600 mark.
Playing Style: The Tale of Patience and Persistence
- Endgame Enthusiast: With an endgame frequency of nearly 58%, Sidhartha doesn’t shy away from the final battlefield where true champions rise.
- Average Moves Per Win: Approximately 57 moves per victory — in other words, he’s got stamina to rival a marathoner, often dragging his opponents through exhausting duels before claiming triumph.
- White Pieces Advantage: 51.43% win rate with White pieces, showing a slight edge when starting first, but don’t count him out when playing Black with 46.63% wins.
- Early Resignations: About 7.5% of the time, Sidhartha knows when to throw in the towel — aka, smart chess quitting, not to be confused with giving up on life.
Tactical Awareness and Psychological Prowess
Sidhartha’s come-from-behind skills are worthy of a Hollywood script, boasting a comeback rate of 71% and a perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece — because nothing says "never give up" like turning a blunder into a win.
However, even he feels the sting of defeat sometimes with a nearly 10% one-sided loss rate and a tilt factor of 20 — an indication that when things go south, frustration peeks its head. But that’s part of the charm of any serious chess player.
Match Record: Battles and Rivals
Across thousands of games, Sidhartha holds a respectable edge in Blitz with 2,338 wins to 2,277 losses, balanced out with 144 draws. Rapid matches tell a story of fierce competition with nearly equal wins and losses. Bullet chess? He’s still warming up, with only a couple of recorded battles.
Among his most played opponents are familiar faces like cabelo10, ravi8798, and scraps33. Against some, he’s a ruthless conqueror with 100% win rates, while others have found his Achilles' heel more than once.
When and How He Plays
Sidhartha’s peak alertness glimmers around 7 AM and 1 PM, boasting win rates above 50%, suggesting he's most dangerous just as the sun rises and after lunch (chess food coma, be gone!). Surprisingly, at 2 AM, he sports a perfect 100% win rate – the night owl’s secret weapon.
The Final Word
In the grand tale of chess, Sidhartha Kumar Dash isn’t just another player; he’s a paradox wrapped in an enigma with a dash of humor. Expect brilliant comebacks, long battles, and occasional early surrenders from this dedicated contender who proves that chess is not just a game, but an adventure.
