That's old news, Harrah's took it over after the November Nine.

In more recent news, this week's show is now online w/ Nemeth and the Wolfman in studio. The main stories are Full Tilt v Clonie and Full Tilt v PokerStars for online, televised poker, and live tournament supremacy).

Regarding the NAPT on ESPN2:

So far 3 hours will be dedicated to each of the high-roller shootouts at Venetian and Mohegan Sun, with 1 hour each dedicated to the 5k Main Events at those locations. So far, 2 hours are dedicated to the 25k event from the PCA.

Andrew Feldman provided an update over at espn.com:

Team Full Tilt pros aren't playing at either the "Invitational" or 5k NAPT ME at the Venetian.
All other FTP red pros will be able to play the 5k ME at the Venetian.

Gotta say I agree with Stapes regarding how Full Tilt is dealing with the NAPT if they are "banning" their Team Full Tilt pros from playing. It would essentially be a photobomb if every time the NAPT ran a FT Pro could take down the event just to show how it was done and sneak in a Full Tilt badge in front of any Pokerstars logo. Oh well, up go the walls I guess.

There is an FTP pro (Roberto Romanello) in the final 24 over at EPT Copenhagen.
