Apr-16-07    Timex: Who is this guy? I have never heard of him until he won the Bangladesh Championship. Is he a GM? His rating seems to say so. Jun-13-07    monvalonai: He is the third grandmaster of Bangladesh. he achieved the third norm of grandmaster in the last national championship. Feb-01-13    Abdel Irada: I'm fairly certain this player's name is listed in reverse order: last name first. Typically, Abdullah is a first name, while Al-Rakib (Ar-Rakib) would be a family name.
