Hit Lichess's 64 game per study limit so part 2 is here: lichess.org/study/6gCvMqvk

As part of my own chess studying I am going through all of the games that GM Daniel Naroditsky has played on his speedrun and taking notes. Some people, including me, learn best when interacting with content in different ways. I hope this can be of use to others as well.

The order and structure of what he says in the videos may be paraphrased or changed where appropriate to improve readability in the study. I will also be documenting one of the features of this that I personally like, which is some of the trivia and history behind the openings.

The Youtube videos can be found here: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLT1F2nOxLHOcmi_qi1BbY6axf5xLFEcit

This will be updated in the following order:
1) The most recently uploaded Youtube video.
2) Working backwards from the most recently uploaded Youtube video.
3) If I somehow get through all of 2) before more videos are uploaded to Youtube, working forwards from the Twitch VODs.
