Drunk Chess

I love to play chess when I am drunk.  It makes me feel powerful.  This movie scene from the classic Jackie Chan film "The Legend of Drunken Master" describes how I react on the chess board while I am drunk.  I keep coming at my opponent fast and strong and I don't stop, no matter how hard they hit me.  If they try to be sneaky, I just dodge and counter.

The hard part is tempering arrogance and aggression with calm prudence.

Drunkenness and the right music can definitely help the with the first two (often at the expense of that last two).

i agree that there is much to be said for calm prudence and careful calculation, however we are not grandmasters.

Nothing like dying braincells and impaired judgement to bring out your best game.

In the spirit of Drunken Chess, I offer the Ruy Lopez-Exchange Variation...

The only thing I do "better" when im drunk is throwing darts. There are limits. Too little and im too tense. Too much and im seeing 4 bullseyes.

Chess with alcohol is alright.  Chess with Psilocybin; yes please.

It can be too intense feeling all 32 pieces pulling at my soul.

By the way alcohol doesn't kill brain cells that is teetotaler propaganda.

I've heard that each unit of alcohol shaves 70 points off your rating.

I wonder if something like the Ballmer peak (https://xkcd.com/323/) may be found in chess.

Nope. The first two doubles usually improves my online blitz rating. The third drops it 200 points. Your math has three doubles dropping me 420. I need harder drugs for that.

I heart the taste of chess when I am drooooonk.  It makes me feel as if I can taste the pieces as I move them towards the promotional squares.  You know I am sure, what the finkelstien am I talaking about.  And veen you are drooooonk, it really doesn't matter want language we speak, so long as we are all making love to our chess army and using those pieces to excel in the game.  And if you no aggeree with these comment, I seek to now speak Englishay, no of the Pig Latino.  Wvile it is true I lose mayny pts. tonight from good rating, I give it may all ween I am drooonk and may the best Kings ween zee gam.  And I think if you will listen to some Scriabin sonatas for pianoforte, this will give much of the pleasure in this artistinc battel of zee game.  I am nt European , bit as an American, drunk chess makes me feel that I could be European or even Jackie Chan.  Would you not agree?  Tanks for allowing the inputs.  I must leave you now.  I agoplogize for spieleing erretorts, but as wel all now, we never proofread documents when we play the chess drunks.

Was I really drunk, or was this just a bad dream?

Yeah but when I'm sober and cautious I usually don't give away pieces for free.

When I'm drunk and aggressive I tend to meet an attack always with a counter attack (even if it's giving up material in the process).

When I make myself play a few defensive moves, it's usually just the right mix for some speed games :)

Don't mess with speed; that stuff'll kill you!

Well, it actually depends on the person, because once my friend and I have decided to play drunk chess. That was a bad idea, because when I have opened the history of the browser that we have spent 2 hours on the site with online automaty zdarma, but we were sure, that we were playing chess:(
