This is kind of cool!
Nice!
Super Cool!!!
Hot find the username of some not well known CMs or FMs who are youth players., I think this is much harder, cause they often use gamertags or something else.

The less public information is known, the harder it becomes to link a username to a player. So yes youth players have often the advantage of being still relatively new to our game.

Yes, this is a problem in preparation. I qualified for the U 16 state championship ( my State is one of the 2 or 3 best states) this year and I am aiming for the national championsship ( I know it is an utopic goal, my peak ELO was 1894 but I dropped) and there are some CMs and one or two FMs but also 5-10 2000-2100+ players and I want to know what they play to get better chances of beating them. I know that they use Lichess but is there a way to connect your own chessbase databse to Lichess?

The method I explain in my article is fully manual so I have to open both databases (chessbase and lichess) simultaneously and then check one by one recently played otb-games with userprofiles in lichess. So you need sufficient time for this which means it can make sense to make the analysis of a few topplayers before a tournament.
I read there exists a tool which does the job automatically but it is not available to the public. The authors fear problems with privacy laws.
Knowing in advance what your opponent will play, is definitely a big advantage which can easily improve your results with 100 and more rating points.

Thank you for this information.
I assume your method will help me a lot in my preparation. Thank you.
