I guess they took your taxes right at the Casino ( when you won) since you're Canadian? Whenever I win over (I think it's) $1,200, they ask me if I want to hold the taxes out right then or pay at the end of the year when I cash out. If you pay at the end of the year they give us a 1099 for our winnings or something like that. However my mom, whom only plays slots, says if she wins over the $1,200 mark for taxes she will just play her money down to under that number so she doesn't get taxed. I believe they take 30% so at $1,200 you only get to take $860.00.
