TO CHESS .COM How Many Games Are Played Before You Get An Established Rating I Do Not Want Any BS I Want Somone Who Knows About The Chess World And The Chess System!

At chess.com? there are no 'provisional' ratings, however the usage of the glicko system means the 'k' factor varies, and it will take a few games before your rating levels out to the correct level. If you mean OTB, then it depends on your country.

Hope that helped :)

Yeah, and would you happen to know how many games does one have to play for the provisional rating to settle?
