ESPN's coverage of the 2009 WSOP Main Event continues tonight with two more hours of featured table and other footage from the floor of the Amazon Room. Tonight's episode promises to deliver some great poker action as it will feature 2009 WSOP Player of the Year Jeff Lisandro at that featured table taking on fellow Aussie and 2005 WSOP Main Event champion Joe Hachem.

With Phil Ivey reaching the 2009 WSOP Final Table as a member of the November Nine, the ESPN editors obviously will have gone back to their footage of these earlier days of the Main Event and squeezed every minute of his face out of that tape to show in these episodes. So, expect to see plenty of Ivey tonight as well as the poker brat Phil Hellmuth and Peter Eastgate. It also looks like Chris Ferguson, Greg Raymer, Kenny Tran and Bertrand "elKy" Grospellier, who held the chip lead for quite sometime during this part of the tournament, will also get some TV face time.

The episodes run every Tuesday night at 8pm ET and will continue through November 10, when the November Nine final table will air, and all will feature the signature commentary of Norman Chad and Lon McEachern.
