"Tilt"
You may recall that ESPN had a fictional series about pro football, but it didn't last too long in the face of objections about how life in the NFL was portrayed. Now the network is turning to "the drama of high-stakes gambling" at a world poker championship for another fictional series. The ensemble cast includes Eddie Cibran, Michael Madsen and Michael Murphy.
