“READERS FORUM” AUGUST 11, 2019

We hope that today’s “READERS FORUM” will provoke honest and open dialogue concerning issues that we, as responsible citizens of this community, need to address in a rational and responsible way.

WHAT’S ON YOUR MIND TODAY?

Todays “Readers Poll’ question is: Do you feel when Tropicana-Evansville get SportsBook betting it will financially hurt Ellis Park?

  1. Now that we will be able to place sport bets with Trop instead of calling our bookie buddy, those who win will be receiving W-2g’s tax info documents requiring reporting to the taxing authorities; however, any losses are not deductible to the state of Indiana. So, if the sport better wins $10,000 but losses $10,000, the State picks up $440 extra tax dollars which under the bookie system never was reported.
