Blindfold King

Grandmaster Timur Gareyev

"I close my eyes so I can see."

- Paul Gauguin

I started playing Blindfold Chess a couple of years ago. After several matches I became fascinated with the way it feels to play blindfolded. My dream was to break the world record for the most simultaneous games played at a time. I accomplished this goal December 4, 2016 when I played 48 games blindfolded at the same time winning 35, drawing 7 and losing 6 in just under 19 hours. The event took place at the UNLV Foundations Building in Las Vegas. 

2020 Let's Rock the World One Move at a TIME!

Моё всемирное путешествие начавшееся 5 лет назад подходит к концу. Я очень благодарен за предоствленную возможность осуществить мою мечту поставив мировой рекорд по шахматам в слепую!

"Watching Timur play blindfold simuls and blindfold blitz is the most amazing triumph of the mind I've ever seen in fifty years of chess."


-Brad Lundstrom, Chess Teacher & Coach at Chessmates, Ft. Collins, CO


"It gives me great joy to know that some day when I look back on all of the athletes I covered in my life, I’ll be able to say the most impressive guy I ever saw was an exercise-bike-riding, walnut-eating, flip-flop wearing, blindfolded chess player."


-Shad Powers, Sports Columnist for The Desert Sun
