Drink some alcohol before playing. If you do that your actually more focused than you usually are. One glass of wine should do the trick.
That's not what science says about alcohol. It's a very strong downer and suppresses your central nervous system.
@Wingmannedbro Thats when you drink it in higher concentration. Drink it in a small amount and it’s an upper.
That’s the reason why you start becoming more energetic after one glass of wine or pint of beer (susceptibility in place of course). Afterwards it constricts the blood vessels which gives the ‘I’m hot’ feeling which makes dumb ppl stand in the cold with no sweater.

Alcohol increases GABA neurotransmitter production which which pacifies nerve cells from all three of the branches of the central nervous system, motoric nerves, sensory nerves and also the nerves that regulate core body features like regulating blood pressure and body temperatures.
I dunno if you're just making this up on the spot or whether someone told you that alcohol in any amount is an upper or improves cognition. But it is established science beyond the shadow of a doubt that it does not.
Law is crafted in light of those realities.
- @Wingmannedbro Read the book: Drugs & Alcohol: gebruik, misbruik en verslaving. It’s in your native tongue since a dutch buddy quoted a couple of things to me, then report back to me. Half of that book is about alcohol alone if I remember correctly.

@apostolateofDOOM lolz nice one! I like science-y talk!

@apostolateofDOOMlolz nice one! I like science-y talk!Your source lists some researchers findings of elevated levels of Norepinephrine. This is not basis to call alcohol an upper since Norepinephrine levels frankly have nothing to do with the classification "upper" or "downer".
When talking about drugs, this two groups are selected on the sole criteria whether or the drug in question increases or simulates or decreases GABA.
Also, your source does not list the research he refers.
Here's a bit to read:
"(GABAA) receptors appear to occupy a central role in mediating the effects of ethanol in the CNS. GABA is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian CNS, and activation of GABAA receptors by GABA tends to decrease neuronal excitability. This article reviews several aspects of GABAA receptor and ethanol interactions, including the evidence for short- and long-term modulation of GABAA receptors by ethanol and evidence for a GABAA receptor-related genetic component of alcoholism."
