Feb-15-06 | | Bobak Zahmat: <lostemperor> No, who is he? |
|
Feb-15-06
 | | lostemperor: A former number 3 orso Afghan player who has lived in the Netherlands. Maybe your uncle knows him. |
|
Feb-15-06 | | Jim Bartle: He's no Leko, apparently, according to his record at the top of the page. |
|
Feb-15-06 | | Bobak Zahmat: <lostemperor> Really? Do you know him personally? |
|
Feb-15-06 | | Bobak Zahmat: <Jim Bartle> Do you mean Zahiruddin? Yes, that's true. He always plays for a win, I think he almost never plays a draw, I know for sure he has never offered for a quick draw. |
|
Feb-15-06
 | | lostemperor: Yes I have played a lot with him. He still has a rating equivalent to 2100 Fide now (55). He must be >2200 then and has played in his country's team too. |
|
Feb-15-06 | | Bobak Zahmat: <lostemperor> Cool. Well I will ask my uncle about him, and let you know what he knows. |

Apr-02-06 | | Bobak Zahmat: <Open Defense> I am trying to add as much info as possible with the help of <chessgames.com>, his photo is already been published like you can see. |
|
Apr-13-06 | | Bobak Zahmat: During the coming Chess Olympiad in Torino Zahiruddin Asefi will play on the first board for Afghanistan. I will give you all an update on his progression and his results. After having performed amazingly at Calvia (8/11 score), he is ready to reach an even better result this time! |
|
Nov-12-06 | | Bobak Zahmat: Sadly, Zahirruddin played a very bad Olympiad in Torino. One of the main reasons was, that there were too many players from Afghanistan in Torino and because of that he could play much. |
|
Nov-12-06 | | Bobak Zahmat: My uncle is signed to play in the amateur Group of Corus Tournament. |
