Oh, right, games of chance and you can win money. This is income and your “losses” are worthless to you.

I’m in the same boat. I checked it out and apparantly if you want to deduct your losses, you have to fill out a Schedule C like you are a business and deduct your losses as business expenses. Seems silly but that’s the way I was told to do it.
