If you itemize your deductions, you can deduct your gambling losses to the extent of your gambling income. For example, if you report $5,000 in gambling income on your W-2G, you can deduct up to $5,000 of your gambling losses. If you use the Standard Deduction instead of Itemized Deductions, gambling losses cannot be deducted.
