From West Point To Rock Bottom To Purging & Crystals. How Did He Become "Poker With A Purpose"?

Come play with us on Table 1! Table1.Vegas
Episode 28 - Dave Richards
If you've ever wanted to ride along for someone's absolute highs and lows this episode is for you. Dave tells us about losing at poker for 9 YEARS before he fixed his mindset and re-trained his brain. Here he tells us about his journey and how he did it...and how he can help you do it too.
Beyond that we hear about his psychedelic experiences and West Point shenanigans. We pull back the curtain and see all of the battle scars on his way to becoming the monk-like existence of a man that he is today.
Crack a cold one and enjoy this episode of the Table 1 Pod.

What uppp. Thanks for having me!

[@soulreed]

Just subbed man. This is my kind of sht

[@RealJohnLaw]

As a fellow spiritual grinder, I usually don’t like the peanut gallery trivializing a level of awareness that generally eludes them. These guys were hilarious and good natured with the roasts, and Dave took them with grace. Bravo

I love Dave's Instagram content. Thanks for having him as a guest on the podcast.

[@DavePokerWithAPurpose]

Thanks bro

[@OhioVworld]

Again, guys if we want the channel to grow, we need to like and drop an engagement comment….please, let’s keep growing this channel bc it certainly is the type of poker content I regard as top of the heap stuff.

[@ambientexpanse]

This is going to be awesome 👌

When I first saw your Instagram I realized that you looked familiar but I couldn’t remember where I saw you. While watching this podcast you reminded me that I played with you several times at commerce. I totally agree with the bad vibes of that casino. I also remember (like you said) that people didn’t like you at all at the poker table. I had the perception that everyone was against you for some reason (me included lol). It’s inspiring to see how much you’ve changed. I’ve also gone to choice center and it was probably the biggest turning point of my life. Very powerful stuff. Anyway I wanted to congratulate you on your journey and thank you for all the unique content you put out there. One day maybe I’ll be lucky enough to meet you again. God bless you

[@DavePokerWithAPurpose]

Thank you brother. The players at Commerce used to put a bounty on me. $100 each for the person who felted me. 😂

Can you guys schedule a meet up game for us listeners? Would love to mix it up with the fellas on table 1. Maybe a 5/10 game for us working folks? Much love fellas.

[@Table1Vegas]

Would love to. But I feel like we'd just be playing heads up. Maybe if we get a few more subscribers...

[@OhioVworld]

1/3 w/ mandatory shots. I’ll be in Vegas late June/early July. Do it!
