Why a Grandmaster of Chess lose a game when he is more than a master! WHY? They know everything but how they make mistake then?

That's why it is called "mistake." It just happens.

In chess you never stop making guesses... it's just that your guesses become more and more educated. Some players are very educated, but in the end a guess is just a guess. Sometimes it's wrong.

lol even computers are can't always be undefeatable - Shredder once had an error in a hash table or something, which caused it to make a ridiculous move against a master it could've easily beaten, losing the game

Yes it shouldn't happen especially when playing against non GM's. These Grand Master's should be banned!

1. because chess has not been solved

2. we don't possess a complete and perfect knowledge of the game

3. humans make calculation and / intuition mistakes due to fatigue or distraction

4. GM's play other GM's and sometimes one is higher rated by a fair margin

5. life is messy

6. the sun was in their eyes

7. they had one too many ales at the pub before the game. 

8: lost connection and lost on time

9: fall at sleep on the keyboard and moved the king e2 and got mate
