You dont need an accountant. Turbo Tax handles it just fine. You already know that you need to seperate your wins and losses. You dont need an accountant to do the math for you.

Did you have any other job during the year?

If poker was your only source of income I would definitely file as a professional.

I'm not sure of the exact tax rates for 2006, but the lowest brackets are generally 10 to 15 percent. So depending on your deductions and credits I would expect to owe around $500 if you haven't paid any tax into the system.

There are too many other factors for any of us to be able to answer that.

When should I start looking into an accountant and when do i need to file by?

I'm a newbie and have never filed my own taxes before.

Well, Im not an accountant and I have never used one so I cant answer the 1st question. The filing deadline is April 15th. You arent serious that you didnt know that are you? You might be the only American adult that didnt know that. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
