What are your thoughts on playing poker after drinking Ayahuacsa? Think about trying it myself someday. Seems it could benefit me and my mind after getting Meningitis last year.

Go for it!
Great question. I played poker for a living for a number of years, and still do actually, just not with the same tenacity I used to. When I was younger poker was simply an outlet for my competitive nature and love of games. I wasn't really in it for the money. As time has past my world view and priorities have changed, and ayahuasca has played a big role in that.
A poker player is simply not delivering any value to society. For one person to win, another has to lose, and that is not a paradigm I wish to see here on Earth. Poker for me right now is a tool I use to bring in money, however I see a time in the not-too-distant future where I will no longer need that tool. My wife and I's main goal is to set up our own retreat center in South America, and that is what we are working towards daily.
Aside from the philosophical side of it, ayahuasca definitely made me a better poker player. Mindset and emotional regulation is HUGE in poker.
