- arlindohall 8y agoI love agadmator, also a big fan of ChessNetwork. Two different styles of commentary but both very entertaining.
- std_throwawayay 8y agoI find ChessNetwork much more clean and accessible for beginners. https://www.youtube.com/user/ChessNetwork https://www.youtube.com/user/ChessNetwork There's also a series beginner to master covering the basic topics of chess. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQsLDm9Rq9bHKEBnElquF8GuWkI1EJ8Zp https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQsLDm9Rq9bHKEBnElquF...
- lbolla 8y agoChessbrah is also a very fun channel. https://www.youtube.com/user/chessbrah https://www.youtube.com/user/chessbrah
- andy_adams 8y agoI spend far too much time watching chess, so I’ll chime in here with a couple of channels/people that really show how chess can be entertainment. Daniel King (PowerPlayChess) is a Grand Master who does commentary on most major chess events. His explanations are deep, interesting, and colored with historical background: https://youtube.com/user/PowerPlayChess https://youtube.com/user/PowerPlayChess And if you want your mind blown, watch Andrew Tang (penguingm1) play blindfold 15 second games: https://youtube.com/watch?v=6ygQMw4rBHg https://youtube.com/watch?v=6ygQMw4rBHg Sorry for sending you down those rabbit holes!
- erikig 8y agoHackernews comments and YouTube were build for just these types of rabbit holes
- girmad 8y agoFor entertainment I recommend Ben Finegold For education I recommend John Bartholomew
- superflyguy 8y agoI'd agree with this. (Agadmator I find hard to understand what he's saying, plus a lot of the "analysis" is him saying "A4...b6...b6...") Other worthwhile YouTubers are Eric Rosen, and the GingerGM.
- newen 8y agoLol yes I can't stand agadmator because he's so repetitive. Every video is him just saying the moves along with a puzzle in the middle of the game.
