J Mac awesomeness and running good.

I know most of you will have already seen this story from 2006, but it’s so awesome, you can watch it again. I think it’s one of the greatest sports stories ever.

I’m not as awesome as J Mac, but I’ve been running pretty hot lately. Last night I scraped through to get my 4k pot when Nadal did his best to throw away the match but hung in in what they’re calling the greatest Grand Slam Final in history.

Also last night, I won 2200 bb in a 50c/1 live game. It was pretty awesome.

RakebackSTAT did around $250,000 MGR last month, and we launched daily rakeback payments which has been going smooth as silky silk.

StakingSTAT took some hits, but all players bounced back and we survived the month with a profit.

PokerCrack continues to grow and we’re now Australia’s busiest poker forum.

I won about 20k in live games, and getting better at teaching myself to handle the boredom to take advantage of the fact that 25/50nl live plays softer than 10nl on FTP.

I hijacked a taxi when I lost confidence in my driver to get around Makati one-way streets in traffic. The fact that he would turn left when I say right and pointing right stopped being amusing fast. I evicted him from the wheel and took over. I zipped through Makati peak-hour traffic as if I was born to drive a taxi. We only had one close call and, although the taxi driver and the other driver would dispute this, it was 90% the other driver’s fault. No serious damage, just a gentle caress when we both moved into the same lane.

3 people made partial payments against long-standing loans this month, one of which I had basically written off.

Every day, I wake up and thank Buddah that I’m not in Vegas right now. Times are good….
