It's the vpFREE2 Administrator that's on the list of nominees, not our vpFREE Forum Administrator. The vpFREE2 Administrator created and runs the database at vpFREE2.com which has been a separate entity from these vpFREE forums for almost four years.

Re: [vpFREE] New Tax Law

 

Joel:
 
Thx for your input.  Using the session method certainly helps.  However, there is something wrong with having to pay income tax where there was $ 0 income.  If one quits VP and sticks to table games, then there would be no W-2G's and hence no income tax due on phantom income.

Using the session method will significantly reduce the amount of winning reported on Form 1040. It won't eliminate the problem but will minimize the impact. Searching the archive should produce a number of posts on this topic. I have been using this method for years and have never had a problem. I do provide the IRS with a spreadsheet of W-2G's and detailed win-loss results for each session.

One proposals for the new tax law is to restrict itemized deductions for high income taxpayers. 
 
Presently, gambling losses are deductible  as itemized deductions to the extent of gambling wins.  I am concerned that if this change is  made, taxpayers will be forced to pay taxes on all wins without being able to deduct the corresponding losses.  For example, if a taxpayer has $100,000.00 in W-2 G's in a given year, taxes may be owed on the $100,000.00 at 40%, or $40,000.00, even though the taxpayer may have a net gambling loss for the year.
 
Will this change kill high limit video poker and slot machine play?  It certainly will for me!
 
Of course, this change will only affect the non professional gambler so people like Jean Scott or Bob Dancer will not be affected.
 
Does anyone have thoughts on this matter?

[vpFREE] WSOP, Harrah's AC Trip Reprt

 

Hi Gang:
As far as I'm concerned, our latest trip to Harrah's this past weekend had
it all -- a very satisfying WSOP tournament experience, the exhilaration of
a major jackpot, meeting an NFL superstar in the flesh and enjoying the
festive atmosphere that the holiday season brings to the casinos in Atlantic
City.
You can read all about it in the latest trip report I've posted to my web
site: _www.tomthebombpicks.com_ (http://www.tomthebombpicks.com) .
For your convenience, I've posted a link below. Enjoy!
Regards,
CoachVee & Hedy
