So I finally went down to the IRS to get to the bottom of this, guy at his computer recrunched the numbers told him I certainly lost more than i wont but that you can only deduct the losses up to the amount won. So final verdict after 10 minutes of inputing things into his IRS computer, is that since I dont own any property, pay any other taxes, no state income tax, and basically nothing else. It wasnt enough to offset the taxes from the reported gambling income's taxes. He was like all ready for my check, and im like I didnt come here with the intention of paying, he had a good laugh and was like I understand and I am sorry. I should pretty much trust the IRS?
