The number of glasses is not the only determining factor. The weight, sex and speed of consumption also play a role. And we must also take into account the contents of the stomach. Ingested food slows down the assimilation of alcohol by blood. A well-filled stomach thus brakes the grip of alcohol without however diminishing its intensity after a certain time.
