After you finish entering your gambling winnings in the income section, continue through the screens. You will come to a screen that asks you to enter your gambling losses. If you already entered gambling winnings, go back to the gambling winnings topic to get to the gambling losses screen. You can only deduct gambling losses up to the amount of your winnings.

Gambling winnings are taxable income.  Losses are an itemized deduction.  If you do not have enough itemized deductions to exceed your standard deduction, your losses will have no effect.
