Bill Hill and Leroy Set to Bid on Epic Assets
by Dan Michalski, Jun 13, 2012 | 3:32 am
We were sayin’ … William Hill is making moves into the Vegas poker scene with a live presence and a rinky-dink off-strip casino … now eGamingReview reports that the soon-to-be Nevada sportsbook owner apparently wants whatever it was that Epic had. (sub. req.)
They’re apparently one of five registered bidders on the assets of Federated Sports+Gaming, parent company of the befallen Epic Poker League and filer of Chapter 11 bankruptcy some four months ago.
Yuuup … sounds to me like poker’s version of Storage Wars. I’d like to open up the bidding at $200 … do we hear three?

More interesting is will the Heartland Poker Tour be able to get their company back. More info over at PokerFuse:
