As you have seen in one of the previous posts one of the most important steps in writing an opening analysis is to select some of the most representative games. But instead of merging the into one game you can also load the games and copy them to the clipboard enabling you to add them to your database of representative opening lines.

Doing this with the ten selected games of the previous lesson results in the following opening report from ChessDB.



You can see that two games seem to have disappeared. This is caused by the fact that the selected opening position doesn’t occur in two of these games.
When comparing all these opening reports and analysis you will see that trying to write a good analysis has everything to do with trying to find a balance between adding enough details without losing the overview.

Now we know how to play this opening we continue with a lesson about how not to play this opening.
