Play Black's moves of the line from memory — 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 a6 4. Ba4 Nf6 5. O-O Nxe4 6. d4 b5 7. Bb3 d5 8. dxe5 Be6 9. c3 Be7 — and the trainer plays White's replies; "Play the other side" turns it around.

"Drill all" adds the 3 named lines that continue it, such as Ruy Lopez: Open, Malkin Variation, Ruy Lopez: Open, Breslau Variation, Ruy Lopez: Open, Tarrasch Trap.
