(Vatchi): Such a great coach alcohol is, indeed, Sotto. The invisible coach cheering you on to victory. Except other people know who's coaching you before you do. And the victory you imagine is actually an illusion that will drive you, finally, to complete defeat, thinking you still could somehow win. Until there's no hope left and booze stops working. Still, you will continue to drink. The biggest of the "people, places and things" is that 'thing' in your mind, the mind itself and its invisible coach, King Alcohol.
