Default Re: Taxation on Internet Poker

The following is not legal advice. Consult a professional.

In the US at least, poker winnings are income as soon as you win them (based on the theory that you could convert them into cash and spend them whenever you want to). You can deduct gambling losses in a given year from gambling winnings, but not from any other kind of income, and losses do not carry forward or back.
