Joan Rivers

Fresh from her crowning as the latest Celebrity Apprentice, comedian Joan Rivers appeared on Monday night's Larry King Live along side Donald Trump.  Rivers discussed her animosity towards poker player, Annie Duke, who Trump fired at the conclusion of the Sunday night finale.

Ironically, former Minnesota Governor and one time spokesperson for online betting firm BetUS.com, was also appearing on the show.  The state of Minnesota recently announced its intention to block access to online poker websites (see iMEGA vs. Minnesota here)

"She doesn't know to leave her (lying) traits at the poker table," Rivers said of Duke.

Trump of course was thrilled when the ratings came in Monday morning.  Gambling911.com had predicted the ratings bonanza based on massive traffic coming to the site during the final hour.

Will she ever make up with Annie Duke?

Joan said she wasn't sure and that Annie did not congratulate her.  She also claims that Annie's people "gave her the finger on their way out."

Rivers also said "there were no losers" Sunday night and that Annie was essentially a winner because "nobody ever heard of her before this show".  

The show airs again at midnight Eastern Standard Time for those of you who missed it.
