It's would be crazier in poker. Pot looks to be over $600. No only would dealer have to count it to get exact amount to know how much in taxes owed, after figuring out how much winning player put into pot. If pot is 900 and he put in 320 it would not be taxed, If pot is 740 and he put in $139 he would owe tax.
You think that might not be a problem? Plus how long would it take to fill out tax form, would floor have to supervise and sign each form?
