I've used goldtoken.com for years.  They have a free membership, you get to have about 15 games going.  The pay gets you access to more games.  I really like it.  Chess, checker, backgammon and lots of other board games.

Does anyone know of a good online chess site?  I'm looking for something like youplay.it, where you log in and move (not live or face-to-face).
Thanks,
