professional gambling, page-6

    Just as an incidental i play poker. There was a poker player who won a major tournament for Millions of Pounds but didnt have to pay tax as it was a hobby and not his profession.

    I dont know if the ruling has changed as he obviously found a loop hole.

    That was about 3 years ago.

    So one could argue that if you say its a hobby despite making money week in and out you may be ok.

    Very grey area anyway.
