Wall Street and the Saint

Having just returned from another aboriginal island outreach, I'm a little off the pace and I'm still on blackfella time. On blackfella time all things you wish will happen, time is irrelevant.
Imagine my pleasure in seeing the Saint take on Wall Street.
Two things:
1) The Saint looked like I feel. Calm, relaxed and confident. It is a confidence that comes with the knowledge that you are operating at your peak and that your peak is is higher than than others. The Wall Street chumps individually lost and won, took their gains as trophies and ignored their losses as bad luck.
Final score:6-4
And Brian wins.
Again.
The tone of the clip was that 'Anyone could win". When I saw the Saint, hands in pockets, sober, relaxed, I knew the result.
2) Wall Street types most likely fear loss and favour success. RPS types use loss to achieve success. In Brian I saw that knowledge. No hype , no breast beating, no big noting, just a simple hands in pockets 'send out your best'.
At 4-4 I was cringing for Wall Street. They had learnt nothing.
This is a funny game. You can lose a lot and win and you can lose once and lose. Champions know when to win.
Hat's off, Saint.
cheers

yeah, that was a nice thing to watch...Brian, although taking losses, which always happen, completely destroyed wall street. Unfortunately for them, they were indeed simply left with nothing, and left thinking they lossed or won by chance.
