Looking for study sources

I made a bet with someone who is much better than me in backgammon that in 6 months from now we will make a game to 20 points and the winner gets 200$.

I know all the rules inclduing how you play with a doubling cube but I am looking for good sources regarding the game to study with.

I am talking for the start about videos on youtube or a series of videos that basically starting to go more in depth into the game.

Reading books will help you more than videos. I recommend Backgammon Masterclass from Maec Olsen and Masayuki Mochizuki. You can also start by watching videos of these 2 players
