Finding very unbelievable move while drunk?

Sort:
cpow24

Anybody else do this? Or play better while drunk?

I played a game against stormytempest, 3 days per move, ratings around 1820. one night I get drunk look at the game and find what I thought was a very good move Re1. I write it down so i dont forget and tell myself to analyze when im sober so I spend the next day and half analyzing and conclude its actually a bad move I was just drunk. once the games over I see the computer top recommendation was a4, wich is what I ended up playing, it gave me a +3 advantage. Then I input Re1 the evaluation favors my opponent then after about a minute the evaluation skyrockets the computer is unsure for a while then settles at +9!. I analyzed this move up, down, left and right while sober but it only took minutes for my drunk self to find it. The only thing is if Iplayed the move would I find the correct continuation?

Also can someone help me find the game its been lost in the archives, was played about 7 to 10 months ago.
