Hello, my name is Siddharth, and I am a chess player from the United States.  My USCF Rating is 1654. I started playing chess 8 years ago in 2016.   My goal is to become a Master in chess one day. I created this account since March 29th, 2020, on Sunday. I recently got a Diamond Membership since May 4th, 2021. My 1st Tournament was in 2019 and it was called the Plainsboro Rapids Tournament on May 19th, 2019, on Sunday. Once I played more USCF rated games and tournaments: both online and OTB, then your rating is non-provisional. I have competed in many chess tournaments online. I also use Chess able to learn chess online.  My OTB Rating is above 600. I played my first national championship in November 2020 in ICC. My first tournament win was in October 2020 when I finished the tournament undefeated. In 2021 I spent the whole summer studying chess to become a good player. Now I am planning to reach the National Master Title before age 18 and then I will plan to score norms and a 2500 FIDE Rating to gain the Grandmaster Title. I accept rated and unrated challenges on Chess.com My goal is to reach 2000 Bullet, Blitz and Rapid on Chess.com. My rating in Daily Chess is 1432 and it has been a while since I played correspondence chess. I started playing Daily Chess in July 2020. I started sending Friend Requests in August 2020 to interact with members online. On September 4, 2022, I gained $50 dollars and won 2nd place. I received two trophies in a row after winning the Piscataway Rapids both on April 15 and April 29. 2023. I also won a medal in the US Chess National Championship from May 12-14 2023, as well as winning prize money for winning 3rd place in the 1st Annual Pennsylvania Chess Classics in Langhorne, Pennsylvania. I played in the 2023 New Jersey Open during the Labor Day Weekend 2023 and I drew three times. All three games were due to mutual draw agreements. I offered draws and my opponents accepted them because they were all lower rated. I also won prize money. I won $600.00 after receiving 2nd place in the 27th Annual 2023 Eastern Chess Congress. I got 4th place in the 2024 New Jersey High School State Championships. I got 3rd place in the 2024 New Jersey State South Grades 6-8 Scholastic Qualifiers. I won the May Rapid Marathon and won $70.
