In the June 6-12 issue of gaming today, on page 3 of the Slots Today
is an article by Keno Lil about the IRS. It states that the casinos
must report keno winners of $1500 NET or more to the federal
government. The article goes on to state different ways to alter your
bet strategy to win just uner the threshold.
Why aren't Video Poker players offered the same leeway on $1200
winners. You've got to place a $5 bet on $1 White Hot Aces to win
$1200, but the NET win is only $1195. Comments anyone???
