I'm Rustam Abdusaitov — an International Chess Arbiter and FIDE-rated player. I run the technical side of tournaments: pairings, DGT systems and results you can trust.
A 2060-strength classical player who knows the game from inside — and applies that understanding to officiating it with precision.
The systems and judgement that keep a tournament running fairly, round after round.
Pairing engines and the FIDE Technical Administration Panel (TAP) — clean, correct pairings every round.
Chief, Deputy Chief and sector arbiter across national and international events, from youth to open masters.
DGT electronic boards, live broadcast and results — the technology behind modern tournaments.
On site at tournaments across Uzbekistan — overseeing the hall, the boards and the broadcast so players can focus on the game.

Born in 1992, Rustam built a reputation as one of Uzbekistan's reliable technical arbiters — the person federations trust with pairings, DGT systems and the details that decide titles.
He has officiated at the UzChess Cup, the Turkic Team Championships and Turkic Youth Olympiad, served as Deputy Chief at the Karshi Open and Tashkent round robins, and Chief Arbiter at national youth championships — all while keeping a classical playing strength of 2060.
