Christina Lindley is a world-renowned poker pro and news correspondent with over fourteen years in the entertainment and media industry. Showing career winnings of over $1M, she is one of poker’s most recognizable professionals, with a talent for obliterating opponents and taking down massive fields in online tournaments.
Christina’s winning history includes shipping the WCOOP outright for $127,000 and placing second in the FTOPS for $106,000. Christina also moves in mysterious ways on the live table. She finished 15th in the World Poker Tour’s Legends of Poker, 12th in Heartland Poker Tour’s Las Vegas Main Event, 24th in the NAPT Venetian’s 5k Main, and has had multiple cashes in the World Series of Poker, including a deep run of this year’s main event.
Christina’s unique career and passions are a result of her journey to Hollywood, where she soon became the most popular and highest paid fitness model of all time. Christina used that advantage to develop her fan-base and become a spokeswoman for a variety of major companies seeking her knowledge and talent for endorsements. By parlaying her successful career as a model into a film, television, and stage acting career – her original goal when she packed her bags for LA – Christina was able to continue winning clients and contracts on her way to the top.
Her love for poker developed while visiting her father. They played poker in Mississippi, and near her homes in Nashville and Atlanta. “It was literally love at first sight,” Christina mused, adding, “For the first time in my life, I found something I was more passionate about acting.” Clearly, her love has shown much love back.
In the interlude between poker, celebrity events, and travel, Christina also uses her powerful reputation as “the Siren” of poker to leverage deals in business and venture capital. She has forged numerous sponsorships, mergers and endorsements for celebrities, new ventures, and major corporate entities. Gypsywing Media, a major marketing, integrated PR, and design agency in Los Angeles relies on Christina as their exclusive deal broker to move clients to the next level.
With no limit in sight, Christina forges ahead to her next adventure. From fitness to entertainment, business to poker, Christina appears to have found the secret to maintaining endless potential. Her charismatic, yet lethal approach to conquering all obstacles by using both beauty and brains has given her the edge other players yearn for. And she’s earned it.
