Both my kids were like that, and they're much better now (they're almost 9 and 10).
Speaking of chess, when my DS was six, if he thought he would lose, he'd move his king in the line of fire (ie chess suicide) to end the game so he could start a new one. LOL. (sigh)
DD (then 7), meanwhile, would get SO ANGRY when he'd beat her that she'd refuse to play anymore.
They've really grown and mellowed in the last few years, thank goodness.
Btw, it used to be really embarrassing... my sympathies to anyone currently going through this: all the other little kids were mellow and well behaved, but not my two.
