Chess videos for fun and for learning. Check out the Chess Basics playlist for videos that cover "things that every chess player ought to know". There are also rapid and blitz chess videos, and several other video series about chess (and even some about Shogi!). Check out my Playlists page to see all of the series. I have a second channel, "Jim Plays Go", which is a good place to start if you'd like to learn Go. I also play blitz chess and Go live on twitch, my handle there is "JimsChess".
