Susan Mammadova (aka Susan64)

Title: Woman FIDE Master

Susan Mammadova, a.k.a. Susan64, is a chess player whose brain seems to be wired for tactical fireworks and resilient comebacks. Holding the respectable title of Woman FIDE Master, Susan blends fierce strategic depth with a dash of charm—and a middling yet respectable blitz rating hovering around 2000+. Not too shabby, right?

About Susan’s Style

Known for an impressive comeback rate of nearly 88%, Susan is the kind of player who refuses to fold even when down a piece, turning the tables with a perfect 100% win rate after losing material. That kind of grit is rare—and probably involves a healthy dose of coffee and stubbornness.

She averages just over 74 moves per victory, indicating she's no fan of early surrenders, even though she does occasionally wave the white flag early with a modest 2.5% early resignation rate. On the bright side, when playing white, she boasts a solid 56% win rate, slightly dropping to 48.5% when playing black. A true warrior on both sides!

Performance Snapshot

  • Blitz: Peak rating 2136 in 2020, with nearly 90 wins and a 53%+ win rate overall.
  • Bullet: A quick-fire style with wins nearly evenly split with losses but a formidable 50%+ top secret opening success—mysterious, indeed.
  • Rapid: The tortoise of formats—modest data but already showing a promising 57% win rate.

Notable Quirks

Susan’s psychological profile reveals a competitive streak with a 17 tilt factor—she sometimes needs a moment to cool down after a tough game, but who doesn’t? Interestingly, she shines on Sundays and Wednesdays, winning nearly 60% or more of games on those days, possibly hinting at weekend warrior skills.

She’s best in the wee hours and early mornings, scoring a perfect win rate at 12 AM and 2 AM—clearly, the 'witching hour' suits her play!

Favorites & Foes

She’s battled players with usernames as colorful as lodeseexyodhevavhe and chesscrafted08, scoring 100% against both—no mercy here! Meanwhile, opponents like ilmars have proven tricky, not a single win there yet.

Fun Fact

While most players dream of quick victories, Susan enjoys the marathon—expect over 70 moves per game on average, because who likes to rush genius?

In short, Susan Mammadova is a tenacious, strategic chess player who mixes determination with a steady tactical eye and an irrepressible fighting spirit. Watching her in action is like seeing a chessboard ballet where every piece pirouettes to victory—or a pizza, because... why not?

Hi Susan Mammadova!

Congratulations on consistently playing opponents in the 1900–2100 range. Your dynamic style and willingness to fight for the initiative are evident in many of your victories. Below is a quick snapshot of your progress:

  • Peak blitz rating: 2136 (2020-05-27)

What you already do well

  1. Active, principled openings. Whether the Scotch Gambit or your pet ...e6 Sicilian lines, you usually develop quickly and place pieces on sound squares.
  2. Tactical eye. The exchange-sac 25. Rxf6+ in your recent loss would have refuted an uncastled king had you been the attacker—your own wins show you can spot ideas like that when roles are reversed.
  3. Conversion technique when ahead. In wins such as Susan64 – Chesscrafted08 you shepherded a passed b-pawn from middlegame to mate without letting counter-play arise.

Main themes to address next

Theme Symptoms Training ideas
Time management 5 of your last 10 decisive games were lost on the clock (e.g., vs archo50). Adopt a chunk system: spend ≤60 s for the first 15 moves, ≤30 s for the next 10, keep ≥30 s plus increment for the endgame. Blitz out forced recaptures.
King safety after …e6 Sicilian Both recent losses came from queenside rook lifts by White while your king sat on e7/e8. Analyse the critical line 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 e6 3.c3 d5 with an engine; decide if you prefer the safer …Nf6 & short castle plan.
Play 20 training games starting from move 7 of the Alapin.
Endgame decision-making In the archo50 game you accepted structural weaknesses (…a3) instead of targeting White’s weak b-pawn. Solve 20 pawn-ending studies; review 100 Endgames You Must Know chapters on rook + 4 v 4.
Handling + tactics (zwischenzug) Missed 25.Rxf6+ idea earlier in the same loss; similar misses in 2023 vs ilmars. Daily puzzle-rush (3 min) + annotate each missed motif; tag them by theme so patterns stick.

Illustrative moment

Compare the critical fork you missed in the last loss with a similar fork you spotted in a win. Awareness of intermediate moves will save points:

Show both fragments (flip through → key idea) [[Pgn| [FEN "8/5k2/R5p1/4pp2/5PP1/3K4/8/8 w - - 0 45"] 45.fxg5?! e4+ 46.Ke3 ... ]]  vs.  [[Pgn| [FEN "3r2k1/5ppp/pp6/3PpP2/3b3P/P4RP1/1Pr1B3/3N3K b - - 0 23"] 23...d5! 24.exd5 Bxd5 25.cxd5 Qxc2 ... ]]

12-week action plan

  1. Week 1–2: Deep dive into the Alapin with a training partner; play sparring games starting from move 5.
  2. Week 3–5: Endgame boot-camp: rook-and-pawn endings on Lichess studies & Chess.com drills (no engines until after self-analysis).
  3. Week 6–8: Daily 25-minute tactics block; track accuracy. Aim for >80% in motifs you flagged.
  4. Week 9–10: Switch to a rapid tournament (15 + 10) to test new time routines.
  5. Week 11–12: Review 30 personal games (wins and losses); annotate three improvements each. Share with a coach or friend for feedback.

Keep the joy!

Your attacking flair is a real asset—just anchor it with rock-solid time control and endgame confidence. One disciplined season and 2100+ will feel comfortable. Good luck, and enjoy the journey!
