Telepathy

I give you one word, and you try to guess which chess player I'm thinking about. To make things a bit easier, only World Chess Champions and super GMs should be considered.

1. Wives---Alekhine

2. Fingers---Tal

3. Cigar---Lasker

4. Juice---Carlsen

5. Curry---Anand

6. Stamps-Karpov

7. Iceland---Olafsson

8. Baritone---Smyslov

9. Louisiana---Morphy

10. Freud---Fine

11. Estonia---Keres

12. Gimli---Reshevsky

13. Embassy---Capablanca

14. Constrictor---Petrosian

15. Soul---

Didn't Kasparov have 3 wives as well ?

I'll give myself a pass for Nimzovich as an answer to 'cigar' ("the threat is greater than the execution"), but I agree Lasker has to be the right answer.

What a great article! In Australia, where smoking is only permitted underwater, and cigarette packets are collector's items due to the gruesome pictures shown thereon, there is a ban on smoking where food is served, which has led to hotels prohibiting food in certain areas as otherwise they would lose their smoking patrons entirely.

I am thinking of migrating to Russia, or at least rural Russia.

Another reason to think that Vlad is not all bad.
