Jennifer Garner is well aware of her husband Ben Affleck’s predilections. He loves to gamble – and poker is his passion. She doesn’t particularly want him wandering off to play in poker tournaments or weekending in Las Vegas. So she’s decided to indulge Ben’s hobby by turning a spare room in their new Brentwood home (still under construction) into a playroom for Ben and his buddies. Ben’s new poker room will resemble the casino at the Bellagio hotel in Las Vegas. Soon Ben won’t have to fly to Las Vegas to play poker- he can just walk downstairs.

How stupid… isn’t it about time this married man with a child and a baby on the way
GREW THE EFF UP????????????
Ben wants out..it’s so obvious.
Ben wants out..it’s so obvious.
#####Ben can stack MY deck anytime folks!!!#####
its about getting out of the house away from them. Obviously he isn’t happy. Time for a divorce, this so called marriage is over.
While she’s at why doesn’t Jen indulge Ben’s other predilections, should also get some waitresses from Scores to serve Ben and his buddies beer and install some cameras to make sure he doesn’t cheat again.
Ben always looks miserable except when he is with his daughter.
If you are building a playroom to try and keep your husband at home, something isn’t right with you or your marriage. It’s pretty sad that Jennifer doesn’t trust Ben in vegas with his friends, who would want to be married to someone like that. Poor Ben.
Even though she’s a serial cheater (she dumped her husband Scott Foley for Michael Vartan, then dumped Vartan for Affleck) she’s still too good for him. Grow up Ben. Your career sucks but at least your wife still loves you.
I have always thought that Ben was not marriage material. In his mind, he will always lust after poker parties, strippers, carousing, etc. He probably is as envious as hell of George Clooney. Maybe he is gay as George, too.
Ben and George are just shallow-minded pretty boys. Keeping him in the house playing poker will not solve their underlying problems.
Building a poker room is no different than men with garages full of tools. Just different hobbies. I see nothing wrong with having a game room. Everyone on this board is so bitter.
I’m with you, 6:01. And hey, maybe she likes to play poker, too. Anyone ever thought of that? My husband and I set up a media room so we could watch NFL Sunday ticket TOGETHER. Jennifer Tilly proves that poker isn’t just a boy’s game.
Oh, and not one of us knows what is going on in their marriage, so stop speculating.
Is she providing the strippers and call girls too? she needs to realize he’s not acting like a married husband and father and probably wants out, she needs to get rid of him.
HOPING ben is under construction too, folks!!
sounds desperate, but it won’t work . Ben hasn’t looked happy since he was forced to marry garner. Once a cheater/alcoholic/gambler always. When not indulging in his vices he will look miserable. She needs to just let him go, you can’t change people and he never committed emotionally to her.
And having another kid is a big mistake if she thinks it’s gonna make him grow up.
Ben’s body language has screamed that he wants out for the longest time now.
She was never his soulmate. hell he never looks at her the way he used to look at his previous girlfriends.
Is she totally oblivious to what has been obvious for a long time.
A poker room and another baby is not going to fix it honey….wake up.
Karma maybe hmmmmmm.
I always found her to be a boring woman that wanted him no matter what, well guess what she got him alright. It just baffles me how women choose to make themselves so unhappy.She should have been content with what she had in the past, but she chose ambition and slept her way to the middle and she is now paying for it.
Last week she chased him to NYC only to continue to be ignored by ben.
She needs to get a clue. He is waiting to be dumped so that he doesn’t look like the bad guy.
Psssst, Jen he is not that into you. If the first kid didn’t change him the second baby will be the end.
I would never hook up with a serial cheater/serial gambler. These things are deeply imbedded in him and it’s doubtful if he will change. Once she starts nagging him (and she has) he just takes off for a while.
He needs professional help. He has promised many times to quit gambling and broke his promise every time and lost untold thousand$. Who would want him; he is pompous, thinks he is God’s gift to women, and has no career.
Jen thought she caught a great prize when she caught Ben. Couldn’t she see that he has a restless spirit and is a spoiled brat. Ha, if he dumps her or vice versa, she deserves it for being an adulteress/bed-hopper. So goes the old saying..What goes around comes around. Btw, she looks frightful unless she has on perfect hair and makeup.
Ben was on SNL last week and reminded me that he is not a good actor. He did a Keith Olberman impression that looked great but sounded like Andy Rooney. And he could barely get through his 3 minute opening monologue without screwing it up.
This delusional, wet paper bag of a woman needs to face the facts:
Ben loves poker. And he doesn’t want to poke her anymore.
ha ha sucks for Ben ….I’m sure there will be no big tittied whores at home …lol dont get married kids
Is it just me or are they about as exciting as a box of hair? Granted, Violet is adorable, but they do nothing for me at all.
Boring..boring..boring.
^^^
As a box of hair — with many interesting qualities — I resent your comment!
I dont know who got the short stick in this union, she was always a loser to me and now both their careers have tanked. I agree with the comment of ben looking on very adoringly at previous gf’s and she is a complete let down from jlo and gwyneth. she finally got ben but the one that got got was her, she is stuck with out a career and saddled with kiddies, she wasnt much in the looks dept to begin with and now even what she did have is diminishing.
as for ben it doesnt say much when his best performance ever was on snl the other night.
a leopard doesn’t change his spots…

Boy, is she ever a washed-out wreck. And he hasn’t had a career to speak of since throwing it all away for the sake of carousing out with that Puerto Rican “from the block”. Hope she was worth it…
“That puerto rican from the block”
HAD THE LAST LAUGH.
True, of all his women Lopez is the happiest.
Um, shouldn’t this oatmeal-faced bore-a-thon be spending Ben’s cash on a good divorce lawyer rather than contractors?
It is well known that Ben is just waiting for her to make a move. He began regretting their marriage even before the ink was dry on the certificate.

Other than movie filler and selling soap what talent does she have ?????
The media seems to like her , must be the manly body.
She reminds me of Julia roberts and her man chasing ways. Even when Ben was with Jennifer Lopez she was stalking him. She’s not as innocent as she is portrayed.
Ben should go after some political heiress even if he has to bag the face, it would help his political aspirations. Sorta like ahhhhnold
JANET, my darling, congratulations on a great article…..you had a winner here.
That said, I think they are both self-centered bores and suck at acting. How are they going to pay for the Brentwood mansion….hope Ben doesn’t gamble it all away. Maybe they have mucho dinero saved from what little career they used to have.
Ben is verry good friends with John Kerry’s daughter, last year when he was in New York he spent time with her.
Ben has expressed an interest in politics. He’d be perfect, since he is a well-known cheater, has low morals, a perpetual stupid look on his face, and a low I.Q. Since his career has tanked, I say he should go for it.
He would fit right in, and Jen would be another politico wife who pretends not to know that her old man is an adulterer and porn lover.
WHAT A BUNCH OF BITTER LOSERS (LOPEZ AND VARTAN LOVERS) ON HERE. I AGREE THIS IS NOT ANY BIGGY- POKER IS A MAIN STREAM HOBBY AND HE NEVER GOES OUT ANY MORE ANYWAY. BELIEVE ME IF HE DID YOU WOULD HAVE HEARD ABOUT IT ON GOSSIP BLOGS. EVERYONE HAS BEEN WAITING FOR HIM TO TREAT GARNER LIKE HE TREATED LOPEZ FOR FOUR AND A HALF YEARS NOW, BUT HE OBVIOUSLY LOVES GARNER MORE THAN HE EVER DID LOPEZ SO THEY’LL HAVE TO KEEP WAITING FOR THE DIVORCE THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN. SORRY LOPEZ LOVERS. WHEN HE WANTS OUT HE GETS OUT NO MATTER WHAT THE CONSEQUENCES. HE IS HAPPY NOW SO HE’S NOT LEAVING.
From Gywinnie to J-lo to Jennifer Gardner? Was he drunk or just out of his mind? She is a despicable serial cheater and imho the most boring woman I can think of.
Now that their sex life is finished (women always cut off sex after the second child and boredom sets in) its time for Ben to get out of this sham relationship and get a real woman he can love the way he loved Gwynnie.
bEN only loves himself. He is covering his tracks for now until the time is right. I recommend he do a John Kerry and marry a republican HEINZ heiress then use her money to run for political office.
Whenever I see the three of them together, he is walking ahead of her with a mean expression, leaving her to carry the girl, who has to be getting heavy now, and Jen is pregnant too. He strikes me as a complete loser. Not good husband material at all.
And now Ben may take his utter mediocrity to politics? Yay!
she peaked right before her divorce from scott foley, this two bit tramp thought she could do better with vartan, who I actually thought was her best match. but then she thought she saw a better apple in AFLAC and that has clearly not turned out for her. and to the person who says he doesnt go out to the casinos you are dead wrong. my bf’s father is a big time poker player and frequently runs in to BA at tournaments, heck the few times I have gone with them to tournaments I have seen him every time. so go spew your bs lies elsewhere.
Funny how the media insists this couple are the best thing since sliced bread. They want to decide for us what celebs we should respect and love and which ones we should detest.
