You may claim a deduction for gambling losses only if the losses were incurred at any Massachusetts gaming establishment. 

 

The deduction allowed for such losses may not exceed the amount of winnings included in gross income for the calendar year, so you are allowed a deduction up to the amount of gambling winnings, but you can have a gambling loss.
