According to the Financial Times, a federal grand jury in Manhattan is investigating Full Tilt Poker and "could bring indictments against some of the world's best known professional players". This is "according to people familiar with the case and a subpoena issued to a witness this week. "More from the article - "The probe is aimed at Full Tilt Poker and individuals including Chris Ferguson and Howard Lederer, champion gamblers who are among those accused of controlling the company in a Los Angeles civil lawsuit filed last year."
"..according to the subpoena the investigation is examining whether gambling and money-laundering laws have been broken."
"FBI agents or prosecutors have spoken to at least two people involved in disputes with Full Tilt, paying special attention to the possibility of money-laundering violations." There is not much really to say until we find out whether or not indictments are going to be handed down.
