Mnemonic Challenge

Hi,

A Mnemonic help you remember a list of things.

'Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain.' aids you in recalling the colours
of the rainbow. Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet.

What I need is a catchy Mnemonic for the chess world champions from Steinitz to Kasparov.

Steinitz, Lasker, Capablanca, Alekhine, Euwe, Botvinnik, Smyslov,
Tal, Petrosian, Spassky, Fischer, Karpov and Kasparov.

@greenpawn34

you should ask Ghost of a Duke to chime in
he is the reigning prose champion
I think he'll provide a memorable mnemonic

Tricky. (Especially the double K). How about in the form of a poem?

Studious Lad,
Come And Eat Boiled Sweets,
Talking Poetry's Sad,
Forget Kipling, Keats.

Ghost-of-a-Duke you are a genius!

The double K was miffing me. had an end like 'Sad From Kissing Kings.' but was toiling.

I'm glad I didn't post my effort.

I'm sure it would have been perfectly splendid sir.

(For the double K I nearly went with Kangaroo, Koala).
