If you're reporting less than $100,000 in income *and* it's mostly W2 income (wages, salaries & tips) you have slightly less chance of being audited than of being eaten by a shark.

Odds of shark attack if you are in the US one in ten million. Odss of being audited by the IRS with an income of between $25K and $100K are about one in one hundred.

Are the wins online or in a casino?

If in a casino, and no tax form, I would be inclined to believe I never won anything.

You probably have a better chance of being audited if you itemize. That schedule A is where people get cute. I know that claiming Moving expenses is a red flag.
