Good probabilities to you all! Luck is a sado masochist unto me, so I have no real chance at winning these awesome books.... I thought I would go through the motions, for Luck's enjoyment...

sweet ; )

[PatSan1984]

Sounds great! Nice channel!

[iccord]

Thanks creating great videos.

[saberous33]

This is a cool idea! I'm glad I know about this channel now, believe it or not I've been playing on chess.com for a couple of months but hadn't stumbled upon this chess channel.

I dig it!

[Fupper16]

Hey Jerry! I subscribed, liked, favorited, and commented! Do you know how long it will be when you'll select the winner?

[AOKMaster14]

Thanks much for providing very insightful videos. I've enjoyed every single one of them and have put much of your teachings to good use. I feel like my chess game is definitely improving.

[XShadowCryX]

Awesomee x]

[drunkfro187]

already a subscriber very interesting

[BloodlessChess]

Awesome Jerry. I'll see you on FICS sometime.

[FlamingUniverse]

Nice Vids

I hope you drop by my channel:)

KEEP IT UP!

[alexandreduf]

Thanks Jerry!

[jodawe]

Great channel!

[manfraras]

i hope i win thx!!!!

[Sozialneutralist]

I don't really get why it is necessary to like it, favorite it and post a comment. I hate to favorite videos, I almost never use that.

Please don't get me wrong, I like your channel, I like you for sending some books anywhere, however, why isn't it something like writing a PM? This gives a bit the feeling that you want to use this to get it popular.

Well, in the end it's your thing, I'm waiting for more videos.

Greetings.

[adhdboy699]

Was already a subscriber =) hope to win!

[narkfly]

Your videos are definitely some of my favorite ones on youtube. Your series about openings has re-awakened my love for chess and gotten me to think about the strength and importance of solid openings in my games. Thank you. :)

[cschessnews]

Nice idea! I may steal it to get more people to my site.

[18FiErYCrAsH]

I've been wanting a good chess book for a while... thanks for the oppurtunity!

[sc0u7]

free book?!!!

[RedVstheBlue]

Heres hoping :D

[jonstewartfanboy]

My reason for subscribing has nothing to do with a silly giveaway. For the price of a meal or two one can have most any book. This is a video channel, not amazon. YT is getting populated with more and more gimmicky tactics interfering with content and now you too? So sad. Make more analysis vids, yours are better than most any of them (in english), KK is a friggin mumbler and most of the non US makers accents are annoyingly thick and frustrating. Content is king, not bribes. Please!

[schleichnaldo]

@jonstewartfanboy

You're right I already was subscriber and though I think this is a nice action, i also think that quality should be on 1st place.

[james1x1x1x1]

being in Australia these are extremely hard to get in paper. by the way since you ARE reading all these coments. post an analysis of one of the chess olympiad games please!

[Fionntan993]

It is nice to find a clear and easy to understand video on youtube, keep up the good work. :)

[firmitas68]

Thanks for the videos. As for books? What book do you recommend for Chess?

[Pflueger76]

Hi Jerry, I really do enjoy your videos. Great work!

[SvePi1]

Thanks for your great and instructive videos - it´s very helpful not only reading stuff but seeing and listening, I learned a lot!!

[Nunchucks67]

Dvoretsky has always been a great teacher. It would be awesome to have that book. Keep up the good work my friend

[cubbiesrule81]

Hey Jerry. I'm just making this comment a bit longer because I know you'll read it, not because of the give-away. I just wanted you to know who I am. it's cubbiesrule81 from chess.com haha. I'm also following your chessnetwork game on facebook. It is a really nice game so far, and I really appreciate everything you're doing. I've watched tons of your videos (from the live blitz to annotated GM games) and they've really taught me a lot about chess. Well, that's it for now! Thanks again! :)

[MShoasz14]

That first book enabled Petrosian to become one of the game's best.

[theunbeatenable]

I heard that "My system" is a good book but idk about the other one.

[xenophon58]

I haven't seen a copy of My System since I was a boy. It looks just like the copy I had back in the 70's. If I'm selected for the give away a would prefer the other book as I haven't read it. My System is an excellent book, especially for players who are just learning the game.

Thanks for this unique offer. It certainly is a clever way to generate responces. I almost never give written commentary, but frequently rate videos.

[seppesai]

Hi, I am from Chile, South America..Would that be a problem in the hypothetical case that i won? :D

good luck to everyone!

[MesousaX]

great!

[GambitChess]

Jerry, you certainly create awesome videos, you play on FICS (the best place to play), and now you're giving away free books. I'll certainly help you gain subscribers by adding this video to my favorites, liking, and commenting! Keep up the good work. Thanks.

[chessbuzz]

Keep up the great work.

[CaTeJIuT]

I'm kinda lucky in these things :)

[NoahClemons]

Thanks for the contest! Your vids are cool and helpful...

[mace142]

Hi Jerry! Ur vids have helped me to dramatically increase my skill level. Please keep posting!

[maltedmilk99]

I hope " My System" is in algebraic notation and not descriptive notation.

[chairborne]

Could I send some books I don't need your way, if you are doing future giveaways? I already have "My System". But the other book looks interesting. Let me know.

[mrcoments83]

hi jerry, 1 question,who are Dvorevsky and Nimzovich?

[GMoney5097]

It's really great that you're doing this, ChessNetwork. Hopefully you wrote the secret to reaching 4200 on the inside cover! :)

[Realspace1337]

Wow, very nice. Who wouldn't like this?

[sollkig]

I love your vid's :)

[uchia995]

Looking forward to seeing the winner. This is a nice thing your doing Jerry. :)

[8mikomi8]

Something like this is a real blessing. It would give me an opportunity to really study chess. Thanks for doing this - even if I don't win, cause it's a great thing and you will really help someone's study. :)

[NegustoruL]

So nice of you , more blitz videos pls?

[8minutesofarc]

Wow! What an incredibly generous offer! Thanks for doing this! I'd love a chance to win one of the books.

[StrategyFiend]

Free video lessons, now free books! Can't ask for more!

[RaelXavier]

This is such a cunningly clever idea, it's almost like someone with excellent strategic and tactical instincts came up with it.

[slothslayertheninth]

[theSoundOfChess]

Anything for a free chess book. :P

[tehf0rk]

[solinero]

[Lebraun77]

Jerry, one word to sum you up -- awesome.

[dietsnapple89]

I like Chess even though I am not very good. I play it on my smart phone when I have free time. I'm only good enough to play with the 5 second decision computer

[elbay2]

Excellent initiative.. thanks!!

[Shshwi]

Love your videos. Keep up the good work.

[ashmanfish]

[petisnnake]

Well this is great!

Even though I would love to win one of those books, I would feel a bit sorry for you because I live in Romania and the shipping costs would be considerably bigger.

But who knows, fingers crossed :D

I enjoy learning chess from you, other players, and myself. My name is Prathna Sam. I am currently a beginner and am willing to go into depth of this game, art, and philosophy. Despite the apparent wisdom my comment might deliver, I surely hope to win one of these books!

[theAwsomBeaverrr]

:)

[Baachio]

Hi Jerry, thank you for your altruistic work for chess. Ain't it really great that nowadays all this is possible?

I've just got interested in chess half a year ago because of my 4 year old son likes to play a lot. I see chess as a challenge for both of us and your work is really helping me and all the people who have the same interest. Keep up the good work!!

[Rannosteachs]

i suppose i shall enter this. i would like to note that your commentary on games is most superb and it has improved my play significantly.

[sackwhacker]

[sotovo]

Thank you for all your videos. I enjoy the exploration of this video forum, curious to see where you go with it.

[k3ris101]

I've been meaning to read Nimzovich's "My System" for quite some time now... fingers crossed.

[kettellive]

like, favorite.

[sebastianquilt]

Nice to have an open forum for a message to you. I used to look at chess videos for learning purposes, starting about 6 months ago. But then, around that time, I found yours, as the ChessNetwork, and you sounded like the ideal teacher. You were thorough and clear, and making videos for me at that time, a learner, to relate to (ie. "every chess master was once a beginner; how to improve your chess). I've gathered a lot from your videos, and wish you'd do a version of all chess vids on youtube.

[LabMonkey12]

I love chess and I love free stuff!

[JCDstan]

win, win

[TErRS66]

Great videos =)

[chocomunky128]

I like the idea of a prize giveaway.

[Chaoslover26]

I'd like some more chess books to further my studies as a player

[0989089098]

I would like to see a Jerry vs. Kingscrusher game. Two live blitz commentary videos commentated by each player would be awesome!

[whoslayedgoliath]

why not

[Haleyjoy0]

I've recently become enamored with the game of chess, and I really enjoy watching your videos. They are much appreciated.

[controlmaster7]

I like your videos, they help me to understand more about strategies^^

[nomindchess]

Great Idea! Good to hear your voice, hope things are well, peace.

[TheXanthosis]
