There are a lot of celebrities who play poker and there are a lot that are actually really good at the game, but there are few who have had the success that Jennifer Tilly has had at the poker table. After her acting career gained her much fame and even an Academy Award nomination Tilly found that she was a great poker player.

Tilly proved that her WSOP success was no fluke after she won the third World Poker Tour Ladies Invitational Tournament at the Bicycle Casino in Los Angeles.
