I play the California Lotto "Fantasy5" and I have won twice this year!
I also have a W2G, for a RF, from the CA Pala Casino.
As long as I keep tract of all of my losses, can I apply my lotto
losses to the VP gains and visa versa? That is, merge all the
winnings and losses, from all games, together for one figure?
What are some of the other deductions? Can I deduct travel mileage?
Meals. And assuming that I had to pay for them, hotel rooms ? Other
expenses ? Books? Computer software ?
I have already requested that all the casinos, I have played at, send
me a statement of my winnings and losses.
That else do I need ?
