gambling wins and wages

[redriverhunter]

I would like to know how the wages I earn at a job and gambling winnings are taxed. IE lets say i earn 30,000 at my job, the same tax year I win 30,000 gambling. Will i be taxed at 60,000 or are gambling winnings taxed a percentage rate and not added to the money I earned at a job. thanks

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.
