No coach, just a few books and he became a GM! - Bangladesh's Enamul Hossain

Bangladesh chess has five grandmasters. The last of them was GM Enamul Hossain who became a GM in 2008. Since then the country is still searching for his 6th GM.

In a country where becoming a GM is not at all easy, how did Enamul become one? Apart from one training camp that he has had with Krasenkow as the member of Bangladeshi team for the Olympiad, Enamul has never worked with a coach. He is a self-made player. When he was young, there was a dearth of books in Bangladesh. In such a situation he read Fischer's my 60 memorable games again and again and learnt a lot out of it.

This is a story of a soft-spoken, humble man who doesn't like to blow his own trumpet. Yet, his achievements speak for himself. With the right backing and support, Enamul could have been a world class GM. Such was his talent.
