Default Re: To all Canadian: What about gaming winning and taxes up north???

I wouldnt claim it if you have other income.
I wouldnt claim it if its your first year of making "real"money at poker.
If the issue ever arrises you just say you had a lucky year.
Its not taxable if your lucky,its taxable if your skilled.
(hard to prove with only one years play)
A piece of advice: try to keep a low profile and not brag to all your friends about all the cash your making,i know its hard esp. when your young .people will go out of there way to make your life miserable when they see you making money.
keep winning!
