Land-based casino taxes
If your winnings are not a form of income, then you will not pay any taxes. In order for your winnings to be considered as earnings, three conditions must be met simultaneously: you must have special skills (counting cards in blackjack is not considered a skill, if anything), payouts of winnings must be regular, and you must expect subsequent payouts. Based on this, we can say that only professional poker players pay taxes, ordinary fans of losing money in a casino do not belong to this category.
