Petty got her break starring with Richard Grieco in Fox'sBooker. In 1990, Petty made her film debut as Robin Williams's wannabe fashion designer girlfriend in Cadillac Man. The following year, Petty played the surfer who taught Keanu Reeves how to surf in the 1991 action thriller Point Break.

She also co-starred in the television series Lush Life with her friend Karyn Parsons, but it was cancelled after five episodes. She joined the cast of Brimstone as the owner of Stone's hotel.

Petty also provided the voice of the supervillainLivewire on the Warner Bros. series Superman: The Animated Series, and The New Batman Adventures. Although she was originally cast as Lt. Lenina Huxley in Demolition Man, disagreements over the character's direction led producer Joel Silver to recast the role with Sandra Bullock.[2] Petty played the role of 'Daddy', an alpha female inmate in Prison Break: The Final Break.

She starred in a series of television commercials created by Merkley Newman Harty's Steve Bowen for the National Thoroughbred Racing Association's 'Go, Baby, Go' advertising campaign in 1998.[3][4]

Petty's directorial debut, The Poker House—a film dramatizing her own difficult childhood[5]—won awards at the Los Angeles Film Festival. She narrated the first three books of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series—One for the Money, Two for the Dough, and Three to Get Deadly. C.J. Critt read the unabridged version for Recorded Books. Petty read the abridgments for Simon & Schuster.[6]

The 2017 World Series of Poker concluded in Las Vegas late Saturday night following a marathon Main Event that stretched over two weeks after a Series that hosted 73 bracelet events. The implementation of a new Player of the Year points system, sponsored by King’s Casino, caused a huge debate among players and the WSOP.

Ultimately, poker pariah and Full Tilt Poker co-founder Chris Ferguson cashed in 17 events to earn 898.46 points to win the US portion of the POY race and free entry into the WSOP Europe Main Event. Ferguson’s participation at the WSOP bothered many in the poker community and was further aggravated when he played the $10,000 Tag Team event with Full Tilt cohort Howard Lederer.

Ferguson had a huge social media anti-sweat in the $10,000 Seven Card Stud Championship after he finished runner-up to Mike Wattel in a marathon heads-up match. He had another final table finish in the Pot Limit Omaha HiLo Championship for fourth place.

Ferguson would be the first player to win the WSOP POY title without winning a bracelet should he brick WSOP Europe, is tied for the least amount of final tables in a winning year (2) and has the lowest earnings ($380,200) in a Series for a potential winner since 2004.

Ryan Hughes logged 16 cashes on the Series, making three final tables and the Round of Eight in the $10,000 Heads Up Championship. John Racener also scored 17 cashes but won his first bracelet in the $10,000 Dealers Choice Championship.

John Monnette won his third career bracelet, cashed in 14 events with three final tables. Monnette and Ferguson were both at the Seven Card Stud Championship Final Table where a huge rail developed during Day 1B of the Main Event where POY considerations were in play as much as the prize money.

The WSOP Europe begins October 19 at Kings Casino in Rozvadov, Czech Republic and hosts 11 bracelet events with the final table of 10,350 Main Event on November 10th. The final POY leader following WSOP Europe earns the 2017 POY title and entry into the 2018 WSOP Main Event in Las Vegas.
