If a person wins a large sum of money playing internet poker, what are the tax implications?

I am curious about a scenario where a person wins, say, 0,000 at a site like Full Tilt Poker. First off, can they just transfer the money into their bank account without any problems? After that, what kind of taxes will they have to pay? Are the any (legal) options that would reduce the total tax amount?

How to deposit money in online casinos without being declined?

I’ve been trying to deposit money via E-Check but keep getting declined. The casino that I want to play at is Rushmore Casino. I talked to a rep. from there and they told me to purchase a visa debit card, which was about . I am now stuck with this card because that is also being declined because I am not paying someone who is inside the US.

I am at least 18 years old
I live in the US.

Does anyone know how I can deposit money any other way?!
