We Know Who Annie Duke Was Yelling at on Celebrity Apprentice



In case you missed it, before the whole Hitler and blowjob comments happened, on this past week's Celebrity Apprentice, Annie Duke just laid the fuck into somebody on the phone who was helping Natalie Gulbis get Phil Hellmuth to contribute to her charity. Instead of Annie's.

Lots of speculation on who it was (Hellmuth even addressed it on the Hardcore Poker Show today here). While there has been a lot of speculation as to what poker industry insider it was, we actually know.

It's one of these five below. Vote for who you think it is in our comments section. And by the way, the voice was altered on the phone in the episode, so no real clues there.

We will randomly select one of the correct answers for a Wicked Chops t-shirt.

1. Jamie Horowitz (ESPN)
2. Brian Balsbaugh (Poker Royalty)
3. Jeffrey Pollack(WSOP/Harrah's)
4. Steve Lipscomb(WPT)
5. Ty Stewart(WSOP/Harrah's)

Vote away…

UPDATE: Not announcing the winner yet, as we may have something in the works with this…developing…

UPDATE II: The big reveal and winner announced Tuesday, April 28.

Had to be Brian B. He use to be a golf agent, so it makes sense Natalie called him for the info. I win!

i have no fucking idea, but l will say Brian Balsbaugh.
I like to hear Annie get pissed and scream at people. I hope Joan is the next one to feel the wrath of Annie.

it has to be brian balsbaugh even though he denies it. no chance in hell annie would curse at jeffrey pollack or ty stewart or jamie horowitz. she is way too politically savvy for that no matter how upset she may have been.
and of course, brian used to work with golfers and his bio specifically stated that he used to work with natalie.

What do I need to do to claim my awesome swag?
