I tend to agree with him but for a different reason, as long as online gambling is only legal at the state level it will never be a threat to casinos.
Station Casinos (Ultimatepoker.com) and Caesars (wsop.com) know that they will never get rich off internet poker unless it gets legalized at the federal level.
They are just using internet poker as a marketing tool to promote their properties.
