Will you put $10.00 or $20.00 on a number Strait?Previous TopicNext Topic

Stak47 where I go to Jamestown Ky OTB you can play a tri straight and exzata straight for 1.00 and it must be that same at tracks..

No you can play for a dollar at some tracks depending on the Track, but i played it Str8 1 Tri. yes I would of got half of the 29,000 grand, but if I had played the whole $2.00  I wouldn't gotten the 29,000 or the 15,00 for a dollar, Oh well if I (wouldv'e  couldv'e should've) That is how it goes.

I put 9.50 straight and .50 box on 1923, it came out straight! needless to say i was quite happy for awhile.

You can play a 10 cent superficta at the OTB in Jamestown..

A friend of mine played 7171 the other day $1 str8 16 TIMES guess what......he is now $80,000.00 richer for $16.

WOW Deepop and taxe free,right?..Good for him..Good and lucky I might add..

I would if I knew the fix was in and I couldn't lose. Btw. if you play 10 or 20 dollars make sure you buy 10 or 20 $1 tickets or Uncle Sam is going to get a lot of taxes from you. 

Yes Tiggs I started to play that number but changed my mind at the last min....Needless to say how i feel about that move

Yeah we have all done it so don't feel bad..Once in awhile you hit when you least expect it.."If" is a big word in gambling we all use it..Good luck and don't go crazy..

Yeah you mean single tickets you got that right!

There is no way around paying taxes when you hit P4 straight,  you WILL pay the taxes.   All you can do is deduct up to the amount you spent the tax year you won when tax time rolls around.   Make sure you hold on to those losing tix becuase they are the only proof you will have,  if you (God forbid) get audited.

For eg. if you hit $80K I suggest you go to lottery headquarters and collect because they can withhold right on the spot and when tax time rolls around you have paid the taxes and can claim any loses for that year and be done with it,  you know.................not OWE any additional taxes.

For wins under $5K you might want to collect at a retailer that does those payouts,  then they send you a 1099G which you file with your tax return as income,  where you can deduct loses.

You can play a straight box and not pay any taxes..

Not in MD. at least if it is over $600.  I am talking $600+ here in MD.   Minimum bet is .50/.50 24 way box / str. on P4 and that pays $2600 on one ticket, you will get a 1099G.  Again you can deduct up the amount won if you are being legit............right?  Now one way to reduce that amount taxable is by playing the box separately,  removing $100 box hit off the $2600 down to $2500.  I just get straights and Str/Boxes to cover the box hit.  Now if its a 12 way box you go to $2700 or $200 less taxable by going to separate tix,  here in MD.  they've gone entirely to individual tickets one play per ticket, no mas.

Tiggs should'nt you be on the other forum about Horses lol!     Nobody going to come over here if you keep talking about Horses. I see Todd deleted my Discusion about it on Gaming. So i guess you can  talk about it here. LOl.

marcie you can play straight box in the lottery..You been hanging a bit to long with you know who..
