No, Carlo is no longer part of the DTD team.

Why? I personally do not know.

 I believe Carlo has some personal problems that were highlighted recently in the press. Lets hope he can sort it out, and get back on the poker road ASAP.

Anyone got link to it? I am sure there is an article in a poker mag this month about him and some legal crap.

Carlo is alive & well, & continuing to play the Circuit as per normal, & still a senior member of the Sky Poker Analyst Team. He is off to Vegas shortly where he will be playing a whole bunch of WSOP Events.

That is incorrect.

He is not "getting done", he was found guilty of a crime 3 or 4 years ago, & has long since served his sentence.

The current legal process involves his request for return of monies he considers were wrongly confiscated from him.

Regardless of what it's for, good luck in sorting it Carlo, I hope everything works out for you :)

Never met him but from watching him on the telebox, he seems like a spot on chap.

Not that it's much of my business but will he be able to get a visa for the USA with a record. The only reason I ask is that I know of someone in a similar poition that wants to go on the Ladbrokes cruise and is worried he won't get through New York

I think he should be fine to the best of my knowledge the only reason you'd be knocked back for a visa is if the offence if of a serious criminal nature.

A mate of mine got in no bother and he had a list of conviction the length of a babys arm!

decent guy , very friendly , and very knowledgable and enthusiastic about poker .I wish him every success at the WSOP and beyond

The matter to which reference is made occurred back in 2004, & Carlo served his sentence. He returned to the poker circuit in about March 2005 (at the Irish Open if I recall correctly) & went to Vegas for the 2005 WSOP, cashing 3 times. He returned to the WSOP again on '06 & cashed thrice more. So I see no reason why he will have a problem, & I know he is booked to retutrn this year.
