Poker Talk on Talk Show

Jay Leno chatted up Barney Frank in a poker discussion recently. Congressman Barney Frank (D-MA) was a guest on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno this past Tuesday. He said on the show that as a general rule the government shouldn’t be to “live the lives of its citizens”. His speech on poker got big support from the audience and made a case for legalizing online poker. He pointed out that the American government “could make billions a year.” Leno objected saying that gambling would be a problem, but Frank outlined various ways to counter concerns.
