It's not just chess - here's two 9dan go players, one of them misthinking and killing his own group: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qt1FvPxmmfE

Such spectacular mistakes are not entirely unknown in go, even in top level title matches.

In pro-level shogi it's even worse, as illegal moves (which are instant lose) are supposedly not at all uncommon.
