You get money back only if the taxes withheld were more than the actual taxes due on those winnings.

Yes.

You will receive a W-2G, showing the gambling winnings and the tax withheld.  The  income will be added to your other income and tax calculated on your total income . The withholding will be applied to the tax calculated and will be refunded if too much was withheld.
