Judging by the number of comments Gambling911.com is receiving in regard to the Celebrity Apprentice Joan Rivers vs. Annie Duke feud, we really got to believe this is the best Apprentice season since Omarosa (Season One). 

"The Celebrity Apprentice, a spin-off of the Trump's original hit The Apprentice, has been gaining a cult following since it first debuted last season," the Campbellton Tribune points out.

The feud has really heated up after last week when Joan Rivers compared the poker pro, Annie Duke, to Adolf Hitler.  "My apologies to Hitler," Rivers later posted on her Twitter page.

For the most part, comments have been equally divided in favor (or against, depending on how you look at things) the two women.

One reader lashed out at Duke:

"I'm sorry, but Annie Duke is coming off as very two-faced and cut-throat. I wouldn't trust her for nothing! Joan Rivers, on the other hand, is proving to be quite a match for Annie, but without stabbing her teammates in the back in the process. Joan is a brilliant businesswoman and is a total legend who has stayed in the public eye for over 40 years. Long after Celebrity Apprentice is over, Joan will continue to achieve and be in the public eye, but nobody but die-hard poker players will even know who Annie Duke is. Annie just needs to get over herself and be a little more humble because karma is going to come back and bite her in the backside!"

It should be noted that Annie Duke is very active in charity work for those suffering in Darfur.

Others have come to Annie's defense, blasting Rivers for calling the UltimateBet.com rep "Hitler".
