Can the Celebrity Apprentice series support another professional poker player? Considering how well Annie Duke performed (not just with her tasks but helping boost ratings thanks to her rift with comedian Joan Rivers), the answer to that question might very well be "Yes".
Poker pro Daniel Negreanu admitted Monday evening on his blog he might consider trying out for the next season installment.
"I've received several e-mails asking me why I don't try to do the show, so I'll answer all those in one fell swoop: I would consider doing the show. I love competition and it looks like it could be a lot of fun. After watching this season unfold, it actually makes me feel like I should do the show. I wasn't all that thrilled with how the profession of poker was portrayed on the show and I'd like a crack at giving people a different perspective. Too much emphasis was put on words like "deceit" and "manipulation" and while those are tools used at a poker table, I don't believe that if you play poker for a living those tools are something that are necessary in order to succeed in life, or in a game like Celebrity Apprentice."
