IM Greg Shahade vs 10 year old chess master 

Longest 7up commercial ever

Man that kid was straight chugging that 7up can like there's no tomorrow.

He kept on drinking his 7 up every 2 seconds

The kid might have beaten Greg, but he absolutely destroyed that can of 7-up.

What a gracious and good guy Greg was. He let the kid have his moment.

Plot twist: This is a commercial for 7-Up

that was a spiked 7up with Adderall

The kid is 10 and you are all expecting him to act like an adult. Let him be a kid, because if he tries to act all mature and shit like you want him to, he's gonna regret not being able to be himself at such a young age.

This would make for a brilliant 7UP ad

It wasn't the kid... It was the 7up

7-Up...... .....The drink of Champions

1. Pause 2. Press 6 3. Stare into his eyes 4. Freak the fuck out

What in the actual fuck? 10 year old kid is excited to beat an IM at the age of 10. I would be too.

It takes me 10 mins to shit in toilet with maximum pushing power.

And, this is how 7 Up became an illegal substance in chess.

Nice fun game. Too bad his table manners don't match his rating....=)

Shahade handled this pretty well. I played a lot of tournaments in the 90s and early 2000s. I never liked playing against kids. Some kids were fine, but others were bad winners and worse losers. It's not much fun winning a game when your opponent bursts into tears or wipes all the pieces off the board and runs out of the room.

that was epic, thank you!

The most humble kid ever

the asian guy at the back cracks me up

Love the enthusiasm. One mistake early on and the kid knew he had him. Funny! Can't blame a 10-year-old for being excited!

The IM makes one mistake, but the kid is good enough to capitalize immediately, and plays without a mistake to the end. Well done.

Lol this kid is so overexcited.

even though greg blundered a piece at the start.. it's still pretty impressive for this kid to be able to take it all the way to a win against a player this much stronger than him. especially in blitz where the value of a piece is significantly less, elo-wise.

Probably would have ended differently if it was competition rules.

He easily won against an International Master (IM). Since this was back in 2010, I'd say that at the age of 11 - 12 he's already a GM.

ADHD? Or extremely high blood sugar? Maybe both.

lil arrogant

How many liters did that 7 up can had anyways

Ok there was definitely something funky in that 7-up.

It's a blitz. These things happen.

The boy is a good player but i dont like him cuz he shows off too much

he purposely let him win right?

God damn you people, that kid is 10 years old how the fuck can you judge him for being "cocky" or not "humble enough" ? He's achieving something amazing and he's young, no shit he's gonna get hyped up ! It's just funny, they're both pros and can poke each other for their mistakes without taking it personal, open your mind a little !

is not a chess master it is jus speed chess everyone is making bloopers

"Classic" - Quote of the match.

Nevel of iCarly?

I know you want speed but that doesnt mean you have to shake and move all of the pieces when moving just one.

showing off drinking so fast in front of his friends lol.

Samuel Sevian (born December 26, 2000) is an American chess prodigy. He holds the record for the youngest ever United States Grandmaster at the age of 13 years, 10 months, and 27 days. He also holds the record for the youngest ever United States International Master at 12 years and 10 months. He has also broken records at becoming National Expert and Master. Sevian was World Champion for U12s in 2012.

As he was 10 in 2010, I am now even more inspired to improve my chess as I'm just about his age. Time to study his strategies for hours on end...

At the age of 12 years 3 months Samuel Sevian (The "kid" here) became the youngest I.M. in history. A world champion U12. He's destined for great things. As for the moaning about his bad behavior here it must be remembered he's only 10 years old and this was a casual game with lots of laughter and fun for everyone. Even the loser laughs along. Great. Chess at it's very best . . . . . .

That kid is such a boss drinking that 7'up

That's the trouble with playing young chess players. The good ones rub it in while they are kicking your ass.

To everyone complaining about Samuel's "manners:" 1. He is acting like a kid. 2. He is a kid. 3. This is for fun. 4. He knows how to play formally (check out other videos of him playing, like the one where he walks around a room playing a couple dozen people simultaneusly.)

Today I learned that being a chess master at 10 years old doesn't make you any less of a little shit.

I thought my 20-year-old cousin was good but holy crap...

Congratulations that young kid is now youngest Grandmaster in US history Way to go Sam

Very interesting and entertaining, the guy who lost the game took it so well and like a gentleman, if only everybody was like that , what a wonderful world we would live in :)

10 year old chess master. Wow!! I once played a 7 year old chess master. Simply amazing to play chess so well at that age.

Greg was being a great sport. Good game to both players.

Dude, I love this kid. People be bitchin' cause they jelly. Funny as fuck for his age.

1:40 - CLASSIC! Dear god, it´s hilarious!

this kid is Samuel Sevian

But this is stupid. Greg lost his knight and rook like a beginner chess player

That was incredible sportsmanship.

I like to knock pieces off the board in blitz games

SAMUEL SEVIAN became the youngest GM in the history of usa. 23/11/2014!!

Anybody else wishes he would of taken a decent swing of that freaking drink!

my favorite bit is Kayden commenting on the lack of time when Greg is down a rook and passed a pawn.

They should probably give him diet 7up cus it looks like he's on amphetamine or something. Nice game tho

I love it how he just gets up and walks away.

That kid really got on my nerves yes he was good but he should try being more humble. 😄

0:50 touching move? Greg let it go. I think I'll try drinking 7up during my games!

i wonder how they both "knew", that, when the IM lost his knight @0:26 without much protection to come out equally of the exchanges, he was about to lose the game. is it because of the rapidness of those blitz games? ..i mean in a "normal" chess game, you could think of a strategy to pull off a win, after losing a knight at the beginning of a game, right?

This isn't just some random kid. He's a prodigy who was the best player in the world under age 12, youngest expert and master in U.S. history and a certain GM in a few years.

Touched must be moved. Ilegal move, game lost.

the kid is a super sayian of chess fueled by rage, sweat, and 7-up

oh come on guys, he's a kid. if you were winning against an IM i'm sure yaa'll would react the same way. plus, this was just a friendly game, obviously touch moves/dropping pieces were excused. it's like yaa'll just started playing chess yesterday.

They made history that day.

damn... this kid is impressive.... dont know who he is, I guess hes supposed to be this young prodigy? But I surely wouldnt play against him in a trillion years... id lose 2 seconds in....

This is is beyond incredible. damn wish i had his talent.

Needs to learn some chess manners and etiquette. Home-schooled and unsocialised, as is so often the case.

Greg shows incredible class to put up with those sassy snots with grace and a smile. Good guy Greg.

13 years 10 months and 27 days. Meet Sam Sevian, the youngest American grandmaster in history, achieving GM faster by far than Ray Robson or Bobby Fischer.

Glad to see the top dog had a good sense of humor about getting beaten.

We all make mistakes. In speed chess, which I hate, every move would be a mistake. If these two played three games, guess who'd win. But no doubt this kid could trounce me anytime. Still, he better get a real job.

The kid is an IM and an application for a GM title is pending on this kid... saying this kid got lucky or didn't play well just shows how much you know. but yes, Greg made a blunder. it happens... also, his FIDE rating to date is 2484! FFS! He was born 2000! If you ask me, there is a good chance this kid will make it to 2800+ and join the superGMs

Everyone is hating but I love the kid! What a little champion! I wish I was half as good as him! aussieshooter (I accidentally deleted this comment-- sorry! ES)

Thanks for filming their faces, the most important part of a chess match.

Stalemate! :D

For being a master, that kid sure has no self control.

That boy seems annoying to me. Haha but he is pretty good!

the IM surely has some humors lolll.... "stalemate" lmao that made my day

For all those hating on the kid, you need to understand the context. Greg has probably beaten everyone in that room dozens if not hundreds of times in a row in blitz, and so they couldn't pass up the opportunity to bust his balls a little.

I don't think we need to be making excuses for Greg, or saying that this child would be kicked out. He's 10 for Gods sake, and I think it's admirable thats Greg kept a light hearted attitude and continued the game. He wasn't a sore loser and he wasn't a jerk, he was a proper adult to the kid. I respect him for that and I don't think any explanation is necessary.

This kid is freaking hilarious.

They were just hanging out in a friendly way, plus the kind's jokes were pretty legit.

not cool at all the kid brags so much.I hate it

Samuel Sevian: My seven year old son, also a chess prodigy with mostly 7 out of 7 results in our little tournaments in Germany asked me: "Will Samuel Sevian be one day the first elo 3000 Player in the world?" I answered: "Perhaps he will! But i am shure he will reach at least a top five rating as a grown up and a 36 year old Sevian will of course crush a 45 year old Carlsen! Also his style is more Kasparovian than Carlsen, who is playing more Karpov-like!"

Mmmmmmmm 7oup

“It’s vídeo? Thank you!” TOP part

That's what i call "Annihilation".

The fact that he actually says check out loud annoys the hell out of me

Never say never!

Sam did very well in the US national championship. He played the best vs the super GMs than the other grandmasters did

I like this kid's enthusiasm here more than his interviews at the current Tata Steel event.

If the moves are illegitimate, the chess master has ways of shutting that down.

no losers when everyone is maintaining a good degree of sportsmanship,

It's actually quite amazing how Shahade recovered from the blunder, at 2:35 he could have: Bxc4 Rxc4, Rxd2 Rxd2 and Bxd2 and Shahade would have a bishop vs a rook and could maybe pull off a draw.
