Jennifer Tilly lost $160 000 hand with quad of tens
Jennifer Tilly is an American actress who starred in many films and was nominated for Oscar for “Best Supporting Actress” in the movie “Bullets Over Broadway”.
She can be seen not only in the cinema, but also at the poker tables, because Jennifer likes to play poker. In one of the tournaments, Tilly met her husband Phil Laak.
Like any other poker players, Jennifer has both the victories and failures. Some days ago, Tilly published a post on her Twitter, in which she wrote about the unpleasant loss.
Tilly against Bob Bright
The game was held at Wynn Classic poker room in Las Vegas. Bob Bright played with Jennifer in the unlucky hand for her.
The American player has been engaging in poker for more than 30 years and he got the first prize money in 1990. At that time, Bob took the 12th place in Razz tournament and earned $2 722.
30 years have passed since then, and “poker market” began to offer much bigger prize pools. There were J-9-10-4-10 on the board, Tilly went all-in for $80 000 with a pair of pocket tens, and Bob called with 7-8s.
Bright hit a straight flush and won $160 000 pot, while Jennifer lost with quad of tens. This hand became one of the most profitable for Bright, but at the same time, it turned out to be one of the most unprofitable for Tilly.
