Hi Nelson,

I love your channel and I love your course. I am curious, I never see you use the Stonewall or Owen’s Defense when doing your speed runs. Do you have a list of games you […]

You need to set up a lichess account and you will be able to access the above as part of their extensive Study section under the “Learn” menu item. What is great about this study is that it tells you if you made a right or wrong move as you go through the opening.

Hopefully this will be helpful to this group, I have been using this to practice OTB using the Chessnut Evo. https://lichess.org/study/z9H5zoN2
