Losers Chess is just one of many so called "wild" variants of chess that could be played online. Other "wild" chess variants include Fischer Random, Kriegspiel, Powerhouse, Crazyhouse, Bughouse, and Atomic. If interested all of these wild variants can be played on the Internet Chess CLub

I like the Chess game were it is 3 pawns and a king each:
WP=a2,b2&c2
WK=d1
BP=f7,g7,h7
BK=e8
I generally dislike variants, EXCEPT "Fischer Random", which you can play (though it has a different name) at itsyourturn.com -- it teaches you to think outside of opening prep. and to learn how to utilize pieces effectively without resorting to all the familiar themes you've seen in real chess. It's the only variant (I feel) that can help you in normal chess.
