Dealt,
I just explained to Rob a short time ago how W-2s raise your AGI and can cause a lot of financial pain for many people. Rob admitted he did know anything about the tax implications of W-2s, but here he is again making the same idiotic statement.
The poster explained she was playing APDW a very high EV game and avoiding W-2s. She obviously knows what she is doing unlike Rob.

People need to realize that if you dont want W2s than you need play 25 cent(non progressive) or lower to avoid them. If someones goal is make DIAD or be at the diamond level playing low denomination poker with poor pay table options than be prepared to play a long time. If getting those comps outweighs the tax hassle on higher denom machines than so be it. I think people should be more worried about the poor tables that are shown in many of the pics. In the long run that will cost someone more than tax write offs and comps(if they play enough.) Harrahs properties in Vegas have some pretty bad poker but people would rather lose money and get their free room. I know other CE properties have decent poker in other parts of the country so that's a different story.
