Yes I understand that. What I am wondering, and apologies if this wasn’t clear in my original post, is say my net profit is $600. But to get to that, my WINNINGS were $1000 and the bets I placed totaled $400 (1000-400=600). Is my tax income reported the $600 net profit, or the $1000 in winnings. And if the $600 net profit, how would you ever write off losses?

 

Hopefully this helps,

From my experience, gambling wins (of a certain amount, not sure if yours qualify it may be $1200+ but not certain) will be in your W-2G statement.

This amount is included in your adjusted gross income (AGI)

You will then deduct your gambling losses 

That'll bring you to your taxable income.

 

I haven't personally dealt with betting taxes, but I do have some information that might be useful to you. First of all, you should receive a tax form from DraftKings if your net profit for the year exceeds a certain threshold. However, it's always a good idea to keep track of your own earnings and losses just in case.
