I found this online:

According to studies, drinking about 250 milliliters of an alcoholic beverage causes the body to expel 800 to 1,000 milliliters of water; that's four times as much liquid lost as gained. This diuretic effect decreases as the alcohol in the bloodstream decreases, but the aftereffects help create a hangover.


I always try to drink a glass of water for each drink I've had, and rarely get a hangover.  Your mileage may vary!
