If you go to the address bar of a youtube video and add a period at the end of the address the video will run without commercials.
Something that absolutely does work to run ad free youtube videos is AdBlockPlus (ABP) Chrome extension. Install that and kiss ads goodbye ( not just youtube )!

Note that some sites complain about your adblocker and others deny you access until you disable it. You get to choose whether or not you want to look at that site. Once you go ad-free for a while then enable ads for a particular site you realize just how invasive the ads are. Takes the pages longer to load and uses up data unnecessarily.
