So I'd recommend his videos if you want some new material, enjoy. -Justin
Jerry in ChessNetwork.com

Will do :) Thanks!
These are the youtubers I subscribe to:
ChessNetwork is very entertaining and clear in explaining his thoughts.
Kingscrusher is very entertaining as well, and produces a crazy amount of videos. He has a very exciting attacking style, with lots of sacrifices and fireworks
Greg Shahade, ChessExplained and John Bartholomew are stronger players than both above, and usually play against top opposition on ICC. All are excelent commentatators, but my favorite is John.
Chessbrahs is very interesting and unusual: lacks much commentary, frat house atmosphere, techno music, lots of growling and chest beating. Hansen is arguably the youtuber with best credentials (the only GM on this list).

I forgot to mention that Finegold is a GM. Time for me to check out chessbrahs, thanks!

Susan Polgar has some videos on youtube, and the Chess Club and Scholastic Center of Saint Louis has some videos by Jennifer Shahade, Anna Sharevich, and Tatev Abrahamyan, if those will do.
Here's the only two I have listened to:
thechesswebsite Kevin always gives good analyses on GM level chess games.
backyardproffesor This guy is kind of a goofball, and he reminds me of somebody I know (never mind whom), but he makes sense and cracks me up at the same time.
I should take a look at all these other recommendations. They all sound rather interesting.
Oh, and let's not forget Danny on the chess.com youtube channel. His Bullet Brawls have a nice mix of high rated opposition, and his comments are the most hilarious of the channels I follow.
I feel that the best on youtube is the Chess Club and Scholastic Center of Saint Louis. They have many videos by different masters on all phases of the game, and they even have it divided into beginner, intermediate, and advanced videos. Good stuff from them.
Yes, Mato is my favorite as well.

I watched a very good chessexplained video tonight. I've watched hundreds of kingscrusher's videos.
I'm usually disappointed with ChessNetwork.
Dereque Kelley is excellent.

kingscrusher is a brilliant tactician. Very entertaining
Backyard Proffesor, I enjoy his positional ideas
Chessnetwork, mainly does commentary on his own games but teaches opening traps and reviews master games too!
ichess.net These guys give you good positional and tactical ideas
St. Louis Lectures Jennifer Shahade and Ben Finegold I would highly recommend
Majnu2006 He has some very interesting ideas. Some people do not like him, but I do not mind him
GreenCastleBlock He is about 2100, and his endgame videos are great!
Hello!
I frequently watch Mato Jelic's videos on Youtube and I love them.
Do you guys know other great chess youtubers? Both informative and entertaining?
