Does anyone else here have a bank account/debit card they use strictly for only gambling purposes? I use washington mutual, works well with mostly all sites except for recently I think they put a block on major sites and my card, wondering what banks you guys use and what works well for you.

Also, I made about 10k, in the past 5 months playing online poker, how do I pay taxes on this? I am just starting to do research today, but if anyone has helpful insight to this, please let me know. (Also, I have been getting my withdrawls from poker and sports books through MoneyGram or Western Union, will this help me evade taxes?

Thanks and gl at the tables.

You move to a good country and don't pay taxes on your poker winnings at all.

If you evade your taxes you will end up like Wesley Snipes. You will have to rob the money train in order to have any wealth whatsoever.
