In Vegas when cashing out chips at the cage that you have won from any table game, how much can you cash in without receiving a W-9 for taxes?

Not interested in aiding a felon and being disbarred.

Cash out $5 --> Bus ticket to Library --> Google it --> Bus back to cage --> Cash out the amount minus $6

This is neither an original or a good idea. Better to pay taxes because sooner later it will come back to bite you.

And yes, as everyone has wisely said, pay your fn taxes. I fear there are far too many pros or semi-pro players who are running quite a significant risk by not tracking or declaring their income properly.

What happens when u buy in for say 8k play for a few hours and end up even so u cash out 8k? This is not money that u won this is the amount u originally bought in for. Won't the cage still try to give u a w-9 when u go to cashout? You should not have to pay taxes on non-winnings

As others have said, pay your taxes, but to answer your question I do not believe that they will give you any tax forms at the cage at any time for chips, but any transaction that is over $10,000 must be reported on their end.

A. That form isn't for taxes, dummy. They file a CTR. Filing your tax return is for taxes.

B. There is no standard, every casino has different rules for when they ask for your ID.

C. Structuring to avoid getting a CTR filed is a felony.

D. You've never cashed out $8k in your life so why are you worrying about it now.

E. The casino probably already knows who you are anyway.

Because you can be disbarred for advising of consequences of actions? If you don't want to tell him, fine, but it's not "aiding a felon" to tell him what a law says

All of them.

If they aren't from a tournament win or some weird jackpot like hitting a royal at Let It Ride.

I am net negative pretty much every year yet I've still had days of big cash outs and the last thing I'd want is that one day winning reported to the IRS.

Can y'all help a brother out?

This qfit page has a summary of CTR and SAR rules. http://www.qfit.com/privacy7.htm

To be honest, I thought this was going to be someone imitating Nic Cage in Leaving Las Vegas and asking how to kill himself ... Pretty relieved it is only someone thinking about the IRS.

At $2999.99* they start tracking you very closely.
At $9999.99* they report you.

*figures are approximate

You shouldn't be concerned about a day's winnings being reported to the IRS if you are properly reporting your wins and losses are your tax return. If you aren't then you have some issues.
So if you think it is OK to cheat on your tax return, is it OK to cheat at the table too?????

Just hire some strippers to cash them in for you. The casino will just think they're tips!
