We always get a kick out of “Bride of Chucky” star Jennifer Tilly – she was also memorable in the movie “Bound.” You don’t see her onscreen as often these days because she’s busy playing poker. Jennifer goes back and forth between poker and acting. Her tournament winnings total an impressive $890,000. One reason she keeps going back to poker is because her boyfriend of 11 years, Phil Laak, is a poker pro.

We were fans of Jennifer Tilly even BEFORE she filmed “Bound” and it’s nice to see that she’s doing great. For awhile it seemed like Jennifer gave up acting for poker – because she was really good at it and won lots of money. Her boyfriend of 9 years, Phil Laak, 42, is a poker pro and has a new series on the Discovery channel called “Underground Poker.” Phil once played poker for 115 hours straight. A match made in heaven, right? Jennifer has been appearing on Family Guy lately. She and Phil celebrated her birthday this week at Mr Chow.
