I never heard this - but happy for them. They seem to be a good couple well suited for each other.

I think they're a great couple! However, I can't find any information anywhere about them getting married. The only link I could find on Google is the one for this thread. :)

Good for Laak. I actually played with him for a lot of hours in the early days of his playing career at the 5/5 5/10 PL Holdem tables at Commerce Casino (in the days before they offered any cash NL Tables). Also met his buddy Antonio Esfandiari (In Reno I think), who used to do magic tricks for people when he was not playing. I know the girls were attracted to him and his personality (and cool magic tricks) then...

Yeah I think this might be error. The OP says September wedding, yet here is Sept UTube of Tilly saying she will not get married.


Also, here Wiki is updated for 2013 films but not marriage, and no other web info exists including on 2+2.

WOW, I didn't realize she is 54 and Phil is only 40

I would have never guessed her to be 54! Needless to say, she looks great for her age!!!

Phil feels the same way, according to the last podcast interview I heard with him about a year ago. They asked when the heck he and Jen were going to tie the knot. He said they were considering having kids (I would hope adoption, given her age) but marriage really wasn't on the table for either of them as they felt it was pointless. So was surprised to hear this rumor too. Of course people can change their minds...

I think she stays pretty busy from what I hear. She does a few movies here and there, but also does Broadway/off-Broadway stuff and a lot of TV work. I think she's pretty much set for life (net worth reported to be ~$25M) and just doesn't care to work more than she has been. When they asked Phil what she was up to in that interview I mentioned, he said she had just finished a movie and had 2-3 other things going on at the time.

I havent read or seen anything about them getting married either.maybe they did it in a small, quiet way,even though that doesnt seem like their style.I like them both, and they seem to get along good together too.

LOL, 'poker pro Jennifer Tilly', that's almost as funny as 'actress Jennifer Tilly'.

Don't get me wrong, I think it's great to see her doing both, but let's face it, her natural talents aren't poker or acting.



{Doing a bit of research it looks like this 'news' was a rumor started by cardschat based on a Rounder Stake Poker biography of Phil Laak}.

It's nice to see the Bride of Chucky was able to get over her prior relationship with a maniacal doll and go on with her life by remarrying someone like the Unabomber.
