Welcome to my profile , my name is Abbassi Hakim aka Skinner.

I'm a passionate chess player who started this journey at 16, and the game has been a constant part of my life ever since. What started as a casual interest has turned into a daily discipline from studying openings and tactics to analysing losses and chasing small improvements in every game.

My go to opening is the London System, not just because it’s solid and reliable, but because it fits my style: patient, positional, and quietly aggressive when the time is right. I love setting up a strong foundation, gradually building pressure, and converting small advantages into wins.

I mainly play rapid, but I also enjoy slowing down for deeper games when I have the time. You’ll usually find me grinding puzzles, watching classic game breakdowns, or testing new lines to keep my play sharp.

Whether I win or lose, I always review my games because every move is a chance to learn something. I'm here to grow, connect with other players, and enjoy the beauty of the game.

Chess is my favourite way to challenge the mind and relax at the same time and I’m always trying to level up.

Focused on sharpening tactics, deepening opening knowledge, and mastering the endgame.

Outside of chess, I’m big into F1 sim racing, the focus, precision, and strategic thinking transfer surprisingly well between the two worlds. Whether I’m navigating the 64 squares or a tight chicane at 300 km/h, I love anything that demands skill, timing, and mental control.

Let’s play. Let’s improve. And most importantly let’s enjoy the board.
