This week on The Final Table, we discussed the Epic Poker League filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, what that means for those who played in its tournaments, whether a pros-only league was a good idea, and the fallout from its lack of sponsors and failed merger with the Heartland Poker Tour.

In our guest segment, we talked with Mori Eskandani, whose company produced last year's ESPN coverage of the World Series Of Poker. He explained what's happening with plans for this year's WSOP coverage, as well as the return of his "Poker After Dark" show in reruns on the NBC Sports Network (formerly Versus), and the possibility of new episodes of that show and "Poker After Dark" and the "National Heads-Up Championship."
