Batman's in the dog house again!

On Friday morning Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner surfaced separately in Brentwood, and not only did the actor look annoyed, but his wife of 9 years was having a very heated phone conversation when X17 photographers snapped her photo. Perhaps she was chatting with her hubby about the new tell-all book that will supposedly dish the dirty deets on what went down in the gambling ring Ben was a member of for many years?

Former high-stakes poker hostess Molly Bloom is releasing a new book called Molly's Game, and it's allllll about her involvement in the celebrity poker ring. She slams Tobey Maguire for ridiculing her and being a sore loser, and while she opens up about Ben's behavior at the poker table, it's not nearly as bad as you'd think. Still, given that Ben has been banned from several casinos over the last few months, this isn't exactly good press for him!

In an except from the book obtained by several media outlets, Bloom claims Pamela Anderson's husband Rick Salomon asked Affleck about Jennifer Lopez's famous butt at a poker game. Ben reportedly replied, "It was nice." Really? That's it? When we asked the hunky star about it, he seemed to think it was pretty ridiculous too ...
