Hey guys OhHeyCindy here. Yes I still play poker professionally, basically just on bovada 10/20 and 5/10 and the occasional live mtt. I'm involved with mobiuspoker with Pat Howard. I don't have the same zeal I had a few years ago for the game, and would not consider myself equipped to battle at the higher stakes anymore, but I am married with a baby boy and this is the way I can support my family, so I still play.
When I first jumped into the 5k games on Stars, people were basically just over folding and under bluffing everywhere and that's why I was able to crush initially. I would agree with the poster who said my edge shrunk when people caught on to what was going on.
Yes, I'm one of the few deeply religious poker players (converted only recently in 2020).
When I did the interview with Joey I was a profoundly different person: degenerate, pleasure seeking, selfish, living the lifestyle of traveling and chasing girls drinking a ton etc etc, all things that follow naturally from having an atheistic nihilist view of the world with no objective morality. I left a trail of destruction in my wake and hurt a lot of people, including myself. I renounced all that and reverted back to the Catholic faith about 2 years ago. Since that I am married with a baby boy. God is good! That's the tl;dr version. I asked Joey recently to delete the interview because I don't support the person I used to be and don't want to encourage people in that direction.
I still get pms asking for coaching and I don't have the time or motivation from that (apart from the stuff I do with Mobius). But I was thrilled to have a poker player recently ask for me not for coaching but because his girlfriend is a devout Catholic and he knew I was Catholic and he wanted to talk about that. If anyone wants to talk about God/Christianity/culture/fatherhood anything like that privately, feel free to pm me.
re ritalin, I think the years of ritalin use messed me up (hopefully not permanently). At the end of 2020 I quit, and a few times since then have had out of the blue depressive episodes that i never had before starting medication (would describe them as a dopamine crash, where you can't get motivated for anything, even in good times). Those psych drugs are dangerous. I'm still trying to get over the effects. If anyone has any experience with that stuff, please pm me as well. I could use some help.
God bless.
-Cindy
