Why are you asking? Is it curiosity, or is it because you intend to make a lot of money playing poker and want to know the best way to avoid paying taxes on it?

My desire to spend a decent amount of time and energy giving a full response will depend on why you're asking. I don't feel like going through the trouble only to satisfy someone's curiosity, but if you genuinely think that you need the advice, I'd take the time to answer your questions and connect you with the people to take care of the paperwork side of things. That is why I asked.

To the best of my understanding, in Canada non-professional gamblers are not taxed on their winnings.
