bottom line is the gov't sucks. These IRS figures are way out of date and belonged to a different era. The taxable amounts should be raised significantly.

If you can avoid this by just turning them into vouchers....what's the point of taxing then?

Only the 'non' tax tickets. If you have a tax ticket and put it into the machine, it will tell you to go to the IRS window.

What they are saying is this. Lets say you punch a P4 ticket 8 times, it hits, and it pay $543 per $1.

If you were to walk to the teller with all 8 tickets, at some tracks you would have to fill out a W2 because they would equate to over the $602 threshold

If you were to walk to 8 different machines, you wouldn't have to worry about that.

Exactly, I have never had a teller try to pull that on me here, as he would never get my business again.(tips) Thats why i use the machines on most of my bets,less tipping. Unless i tip over the machine because it swallowed my voucher and thats a whole nother story.
