*Tax On Blackjack Winningssidthesquidso i have a question about taxes and blackjack, suppose you walts right in a casino and sit down and play and manage to lose somewhere in the realm of 3k-5k$ and suppose the next 3hr or days you manage to win that 3k-5k$ right back, do you owe taxes on your winnings but not really winnings just recoveries? if so thats more then a -0.5 disadvantage you are playing with , i am not saying blackjack is beatable but with 1-10 spread or 25-250 needing atleast 29 grand right off the bat knowing you could lose 1/2 of it in a short time and having the pit boss say off the floor with you like Colin jones had on youtube video it all seems like a giant head if you owe the tax man money on your break even bets lol but again im sure you can extract money from the tables so many have claimed so in the past...GWAETechnically yes you owe taxes on any win but you can off set the wins as long as you file the long form.Expect the worst and you will never be disappointed.

The tax code does not specify between separate events. If you want to be completely technical, if you bet $100 on a hand and win you should be paying taxes on that as well. However, during an audit they will allow a ’session’ to be 1 bet. Now the argument is, what is a session? I play for an hour and win 1k, take a break and grab dinner. After dinner in play again and lose 1k and go home. Was that 1 session at break even or 2 sessions with +1k (taxabale) and -1k (used to offset the tax). What if I go on monday and lose 1k, then go on Friday and win 1k. Again is that 1 week long session or 2 separate sessions? What about the year? Is it 1 long session or many many throughout? There is always debate on what is correct.Expect the worst and you will never be disappointed. I AM NOT PART OF GWAE RADIO SHOWsidthesquidi guess i should make things more clearer, what is the legal stand point ? if you lose 2k$ in 2 weeks and win 2k$ in 2 weeks you really do owe taxes on 2,000 win?thats dumb and retarded to the 5th power, does the casino assist the government on your wins/losses?GWAE

Find a seasoned tax attorney, preferably a CPA, plunk down a few hundred $$ and have him answer your questions. Short of that, spend a few hours researching on the web.The fact is that for most, this won’t be an issue. The IRS is doing fewer and fewer audits each year. Less than one in a hundred returns are being audited. A tax pro can tell you how to avoid red flags that can raise IRS suspicions.RonCThis conversation should start with the IRS (assuming that your activity is in the US and you are a citizen/resident of the US):Topic 419 - Gambling Income and LossesThe following rules apply to casual gamblers. Gambling winnings are fully taxable and you must report them on your tax return. Gambling income includes but is not limited to winnings from lotteries, raffles, horse races, and casinos. It includes cash winnings and the fair market value of prizes, such as cars and trips. For additional information, refer to Publication 525, Taxable and Nontaxable Income, or review How Do I Claim My Gambling Winnings and/or Losses?Gambling WinningsA payer is required to issue you a Form W-2G (PDF), Certain Gambling Winnings, if you receive certain gambling winnings or if you have any gambling winnings subject to federal income tax withholding. You must report all gambling winnings on your Form 1040 (PDF) as ’Other Income’ (line 21), including winnings that are not subject to withholding. In addition, you may be required to pay an estimated tax on your gambling winnings. For information on withholding on gambling winnings, refer to Publication 505, Tax Withholding and Estimated Tax. If you are considered a nonresident alien of the United States for income tax purposes and you have to file a tax return, you must use Form 1040NR (PDF), U.S. Nonresident Alien Income Tax Return. Refer to Publication 519, U.S. Tax Guide for Aliens, and Publication 901, U.S. Tax Treaties, for more information.Gambling LossesYou may deduct gambling losses only if you itemize deductions. However, the amount of losses you deduct may not be more than the amount of gambling income reported on your return. Claim your gambling losses on Form 1040, Schedule A (PDF) as an ’Other Miscellaneous Deduction’ (line 28) that is not subject to the 2% limit. A nonresident alien of the United States cannot deduct gambling losses.RecordkeepingIt is important to keep an accurate diary or similar record of your gambling winnings and losses. To deduct your losses, you must be able to provide receipts, tickets, statements, or other records that show the amount of both your winnings and losses. Refer to Publication 529, Miscellaneous Deductions, for more information.https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc419.htmlI do know that some people write about how they are treated in an audit situation, etc. but starting with the information above, and diving deeper into it with all the links if necessary, is the place to start. The key that I always see mentioned is to have good Recordkeeping. Without that, the auditor can easily disallow a lot of things should they be so inclined and you would not have room to fight their decision since you did not follow the basic rules.
Gamblers understand the concept of win some, lose some. But the IRS? It prefers exact numbers. Specifically, your tax return should reflect your total year’s gambling winnings – from the big blackjack score to the smaller fantasy football payout. That’s because you’re required to report each stroke of luck as taxable income — big or small, buddy or casino.
If you itemize your deductions, you can offset your winnings by writing off your gambling losses.
It may sound complicated, but TaxAct will walk you through the entire process, start to finish. That way, you leave nothing on the table. How much can I deduct in gambling losses?
You can report as much as you lost in 2019 , but you cannot deduct more than you won. And you can only do this if you’re itemizing your deductions. If you’re taking the standard deduction, you aren’t eligible to deduct your gambling losses on your tax return, but you are still required to report all of your winnings.Where do I file this on my tax forms?
Let’s say you took two trips to Vegas this year. In Trip A, you won $6,000 in poker. In the Trip B, you lost $8,000. You must list each individually, with the winnings noted on your return as taxable income and the loss as an itemized deduction in Schedule A. In this instance, you won’t owe tax on your winnings because your total loss is greater than your total win by $2,000. However, you do not get to deduct that net $2,000 loss, only the first $6,000.
Now, let’s flip those numbers. Say in Trip A, you won $8,000 in poker. In Trip B, you lost $6,000. You’ll report the $8,000 win on your return, the $6,000 loss deduction on Schedule A, and still owe taxes on the remaining $2,000 of your winnings. What’s a W-2G? And should I have one?
A W-2G is an official withholding document; it’s typically issued by a casino or other professional gaming organization. You may receive a W-2G onsite when your payout is issued. Or, you may receive one in the mail after the fact. Gaming centers must issue W-2Gs by January 31. When they send yours, they also shoot a copy to the IRS, so don’t roll the dice: report those winnings as taxable income.
Don’t expect to get a W-2G for the $6 you won playing the Judge Judy slot machine. Withholding documents are triggered by amount of win and type of game played.Expect to receive a W-2G tax form if you won:
*$1,200 or more on slots or bingo
*$1,500 or more on keno
*$5,000 or more in poker
*$600 or more on other games, but only if the payout is at least 300 times your wager
Tip: Withholding only applies to your net winnings, which is your payout minus your initial wager. What kinds of records should I keep?
Keep a journal with lists, including: each place you’ve gambled; the day and time; who was with you; and how much you bet, won, and lost. You should also keep receipts, payout slips, wagering tickets, bank withdrawal records, and statements of actual winnings. You may also write off travel expenses associated with loss, so hang on to airfare receipts.Taxes On Blackjack Winnings
