If you come across a wad of cash and stash it under your pillow, you're not going to get into any trouble.

You probably won't. However, if you plan to break the law and brag about not paying your taxes, don't expect any help from those of us who do pay our taxes.

I'm not sure what the balance between 'doing the right thing' and 'not risking getting caught' is for most poker players when it comes to paying taxes. In this situation, one would have to weigh heavily on the 'doing the right thing' side to report it.

Unless the player in question had foolishly declared his intention not to pay taxes on the money. Then we're back in "risk of getting caught" land.
