Unlike most competitive sports, some of the greatest Chess players can earn their Grandmaster status at a very young age. Renowned Chess players and Twitch streamers Alexandra and Andrea Botez are yet to be given the title, as of writing. However, the BotezLive streamers have still pulled in an incredible amount of wins and awards in the world of Chess throughout their long careers. As with any player, they\u2019ve also had their fair share of losses \u2014 one of which was particularly embarrassing for them when one of their opponents started doing the Fortnite dance after their win. Botez sisters claim \u201ckids\u201d are the hardest to lose to in Chess On September 11, Alex and Andrea joined Lex Clips and explained that most of their embarrassing losses have been when they\u2019ve been up against much younger opponents. Especially, when they begin to heckle them or celebrate in an unusual way. For Andrea, it was particularly when she was up against \u201ckids\u201d or \u201cyounger boys\u201d who were \u201creally cocky\u201d and rubbed their success in her face during her high school years. Yet, as they\u2019ve got older, they still have problems with some of their young opponents. \u201cI feel like when you\u2019re adults and you\u2019re paired against a kid, it\u2019s just hard,\u201d Andrea claimed. \u201cIt depends maybe if they\u2019re a really sweet kid. But, most of the time I play kids they\u2019re just really arrogant.\u201d However, for Alexandra, nothing quite beats being outmatched by a 14-year-old who then proceeded to do the Fortnite dance after his win as she was left to \u201cswallow [her] pride.\u201d She added: \u201cHe is a very young Master. I think he became master when he was like 9-years-old or something. He\u2019s very good at Chess and doing a lot of training, but he\u2019s also incredibly good at trash-talking.\u201d The Botez sisters have been beaten by younger players during their livestreams on numerous occasions. However, with 1.1M followers on Twitch, that hasn\u2019t done anything to dull their popularity as one of the most popular Chess streaming channels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Botez Sisters reveal their \u201cmost embarrassing\u201d Chess losses against younger players YouTube: Lex ClipsPopular Chess streamers Alexandra and Andrea Botez opened up about their \u201cmost embarrassing\u201d loses in their competitive careers, particularly from younger competitors.
