Sid Choudhury - The Chess Biologist of the Board
Sid Choudhury, aka thisisschoudhury, is a fascinating specimen in the ecosystem of chess players. With a rapid rating oscillating from a modest 419 in early 2024 to a peak of 706, and currently cruising at 604 in 2025, Sid’s game evolves much like a fine evolutionary trait—adapting, mutating, and occasionally surprising his opponents.
Known for a rapid style that resembles cellular mitosis — splitting attention across the board with an average of 57 moves per win and a patient, mitochondria-powered persistence in endings (with a high endgame frequency of 57.8%), Sid shows remarkable stamina. He’s not just about brute force; Sid possesses tactical prowess so sharp that when a piece drops, he snaps back with a perfect 100% win rate afterward—talk about cellular regeneration!
His longest winning streak is a solid 8 games, but currently, he’s hydrating his momentum with a fresh 2-game streak. Sid’s psychological resilience counters the dreaded "tilt factor" with a low score of 7, suggesting his neural pathways handle defeat better than most.

- Wins/Losses/Draws in Rapid: 269 / 269 / 43 — the perfect balance of yin and yang.

- Best days & hours: Sidekick to Thursday battles (win rate over 52%), and showing peak energy around 17:00 hours with a 63% win rate — prime time for evolutionary leaps!
Sid’s nickname in the chess petri dish could just as well be "the comeback cell," thriving where others might fracture and stagnate. Whether facing top-secret openings or casual opponents, Sid's unpredictable genome of moves keeps the game exciting and fresh.
In the grand biosphere of chess, Sid Choudhury proves that whether dissecting board positions or doubling down on strategies, his skill set is as adaptable as DNA itself — always ready for the next mutation, the next mate.
