Hahah I clicked the link but I started listening to it rather than watching it (I was working on things in the foreground). I thought he did great.
Then near the end, I clicked the window to see the clip, thus seeing what others did. Yeah, add me to the list that wishes he would have polished up his appearance for this discussion. And no, when it comes to Jason's trustworthiness, it
shouldn't matter how he dresses, but it still will for many CNBC viewers. That's just the sad truth.
Personally, I wish he had worn a shirt and tie mostly because the PokerStars gear makes it look like he's doing an advertorial. Yes, his points are good. But having a PokerStars-laden rep up there talking in support of online poker would be like having Lawrence Bender talking about the need to address climate change. Everything he says might be dead-on accurate, but the opposition will still point out Bender's interest in the film
An Inconvenient Truth.
