Had a practical joke played on me, chess related. When it happened, it wasn't so much that I was pissed, but disappointed, and boy was my face red. They got me good. Now it was a small group of chess players from the reigon, and skill wise, I am the worst. We usually get together to play a handful of 15 minute games against each other and toss back a few and shoot the shot. On this occasion we bought a few bottles of "cachaça", sugar cane alcohol, also called "fire-water" or "aguardiente". Potent stuff. It is a clear, water like color. Anyways, after a few games and rounds someone bought another bottle. We decided to play quick 10 minute games where the loser had to take a triple shot one right after another. The winner stayed on board, the losers rotates. Well my opponent blundered, I won, he took his shots. One after another, they blundered or missed positions, took shots and rotated. I was winning every game. They got drunker and drunker, playing really bad, and I just kept winning. Finally after 7 or 8 rounds of being undefeated, I lost. I went to take my shot, and it was WATER. They just decided to have a laugh. I thought it was a GREAT practical joke. Although I was disappointed I hadnt actually won those games and just had them given to me as part of the joke.
I know there are more than a few people here who would love to play it on their buddies.
I'd have a hard time finding people willing to spend hours losing chess matches just for the punch line.
To make the process a little more lucrative in the future, you can turn it into a hustle. [drunkenly] "Aww, ya beat me again, aahl betcha 50 bucks you can't do it again." Might be easier getting partners to go in on. [drunkenly] "Doubbller nothin!"

You can buy chess pieces which are shot glasses. When you capture a piece you drink.
So a 2000 player vs a 1400 player for example. The 2000 player would obviously crush the 1400 so as he captures more and more pieces he starts drinking. Eventually he will get so drunk that his chess will suck and the field will be level.
And that Friend, is how it is done.
I do not support drinking and RHP is not responsible for my above post.
