Annie Duke's appearance on the 2009 NBC National Heads-Up Poker Championship will not last as many episodes as her appearance on that other NBC program, The Celebrity Apprentice. Duke was never able to get a chip lead against Brad Garrett and finally pushed her short stack all in preflop with {A-Spades} {9-Hearts}. Garrett quickly called with a dominating hand {A-Hearts} {J-Hearts} that made a flush on a board of {10-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {3-Hearts} {3-Spades}.

The two graced hostess Leeann Tweeden with a post-match interview, with Tweeden asking Garrett a few serious questions about his upcoming Round Two match with Glenn Chorny and Garrett responding in his usual joking manner.
