First of all, you can't just claim your net. That's expressly forbidden in IRS Pub 529 (how many times have I written this?)

Yes, but my "session" at Party poker will run from Jan. 1, 2005 to Dec. 31,2005.

Say for example, total profit for the year was 35,000. But say you only cash out $30,000 directly into your bank account and the remaining $5,000 remains in your bankroll on the poker site. What income are you supposed to claim come tax day?

Both are wrong. Listen to Kurn.

As a side note, when you figure out how its supposed to work, you aren't going to be happy.
