W2-G entered correctly but total $ does NOT show up on Income and Earnings summary, this occurred before as I'm a long time turbo tax user

Look at the actual tax return, not a summary screen in TurboTax. Gambling income should appear on Schedule 1 line 8b.

Thank you for the information.  I never check my itemized 1040, as I trust Turbo Tax to accurately calculate my return, as a user for nine years along with paying and using Turbo Tax to complete other family members taxes.  Thus, why I would like the  software to work accurately, as I enter the Wages & Income.  As this is not the case, I will definitely take your advice and look at the itemized 1040 upon completion and when ready to file.  Thanks again.
