You may want to consider sending an e mail each of the casinos and ask them
what the withholding rates on W2G's are for Ohio and respective City. I
would think that they would respond to your question in a timely manner. I
can' imagine that the WH rate would be 6% unless they are combining the city
and state tax WH.

Subject: [vpFREE] More questions about Ohio gambling state and city taxes
I'm thoroughly confused right now. Does Ohio withhold 4% or 6% from W2-G
jackpots? I've had reports of both of these figures, but I assume it is
standard across the state. Can some of you actually look at your W2-G's and
verify the percentage in the "State tax" box.
I just received this from someone who lives outside the Cleveland city
limits, but plays at Cleveland Horseshoe Casino:
<<I just received another W2g this past Friday. Box 14, labeled State Income
Tax withheld, has 6% of my jackpot total. Nowhere on the W2g is there any
mention of City Tax.>>
This verifies the previous info I had that Cleveland only taxes residents so
would only withhold for residents. Since Columbus and Cincinnati taxes both
residents and non-residents I believe that both of those withhold city taxes
for everyone. Can some of you personally verify those details by looking at
your W2-G's from each of those cities, and be sure to add whether you are a
resident of that particular city.
This subject may put me over the edge!!!! I've combed the Internet and not
found this specific information.
