She may be an all-conquering poker goddess by day, but in her other life, Annie Duke has been battling it out in the States on the celebrity version of The Apprentice. In the heads-up battle, Duke went toe-to-toe with quiet and reserved (yeah, right) Joan Rivers, with the latter finally winning the final task, bagging her charity $500,000 but not before the controversial comedienne had launched a barrage of abuse at her opponent. Annie Duke’s charity, Refugees International, received over $700,000 from Celebrity Apprentice despite her runner-up spot. |
