If you did not receive a W2-G from the Casino which would have the State Payer ID, you would not complete a W2G in TurboTax.

To enter your gambling winnings in TurboTax Deluxe:

Choose Federal Taxes tab
Wages & Income
Less Common Income
Show more if necessary
Select Gambling winnings
Skip W2G

In the California return:

California lottery select No
Read the loss adjustment and answer if necessary for your situation
Follow the prompts to finish your return.

Based on the steps shown there is no requirement for a State ID entry so this should help you move through the return without issue.
