I'm skeptical about the NBC part, though, because GSN owns HSP. They could sell the rights of course. GSN/WPT are expected to announce another delay in GSN's WPT decision today. Just a few days ago Mori Eskandani was saying that if GSN decided to continue with poker he was confident that HSP would be back. So the above seems to be quite a change in a few days, unless the plan is to keep all the shows on GSN. That would be great. I’m skeptical about the NBC part, though, because GSN owns HSP.

No confirmation on the network ... but NBC seems so logical.

(Steve loves swag.) So I gotta think the "rumor" coming straight from the horse's mouth is pretty valid, no? Either he's totally full of shit or's got the stone-cold nuts.

He and Mori Eskandani were the "Executive Consultants" on High Stakes Poker, and I believe he's credited on Poker After Dark as well. That doesn't mean the rumor's true, though. Rumors seem to swirl around HSP like they do around the death of a famous celebrity. I’m pretty sure Drache works for Poker PROductions.
