If you deposit money from offshore gambling, you should report it as
income. Failure to report income is serious, and could land you in
jail. No amount of money is worth prison. Pay your taxes.

100% correct. If you deposit 10k of CASH or more in the same day a 8300
form is filled out and sent to the IRS. If you put down 10k or more as a
down payment on a car an 8300 form is also sent in. Now if you deposit a
check or write a check for that down payment no form.
The reason this was made law was to catch drug dealers trying to laundry
money back during the cocaine cowboy days. I had made one deposit to one
account before a trip to Vegas for a tourney and then made another deposit
into a seperate account at the same bank and it was over 10k total and I
was told the form would be sent out. She also told me if it were a check
they do not send one out.
So you think I will just deposit checks and not have to worry about taxes.
If you wish not to report it that is up to you. But if you get an audit
and they pull your bank records the saying "have a nice day" will not
apply to you for some time to come.
So don't worry about the form and do have a nice day. Congrats on the
score as well!

That's a ridiculous claim. Cite your source.

Thanx so much......appreciate the clarification.....lots of different
takes......thanks again..it is appreciated....and easies my paranoid
worries......lol
What about a $10k wire?
A wire is same as cash, it will be reported. It must be a check to avoid
reporting. So just request a check be sent to you, although it takes a
little longer to get the money.

I think they're supposed to report it if you ask about what the thresholds are.

Ridiculous?
Not sure what you consider to be "a very long time", but I can verify
it's been the case since at least 1978.
Just ask anyone at your bank.

Should also be noted that multiple transactions of slightly less than
10k will prompt the filing as well, provided the bank is paying
attention. If they note that you are depositing less than 10k to
bypass the filing requirements they can (required to?) file one.

Find a friendly banker or open an offshore account and just save the money.
I know a guy who went to jail because of this law.

If you make enough of these 9.9, 9.5, 9.2, 9.4 type of deposits you're
going to get reported anyway.

In fact, in addition to filling out the form, bank officers are
encouraged to telephone authorities and report you immediately if they
see any pattern of transactions designed to stay under the $10k limit.

Well, it's called structuring, and it's illegal. Even if the money is legal,
and all taxes are paid on it, you can go to jail for structuring.
Don't go betting two years of your life on this (although it's more
likely a very short sentence and a very large fine + interest). Even if
you knew the teller, the bank manager is supposed to review such
transactions. Even if you got to the manager, you have internal
auditors who review reportable transactions. I would dutifully review
every => $10k and write up any manager failing to report such a
transaction.

Then you're not a friendly banker.
If you're over 10k then it doesn't matter how friendly your banker is.
But just an ocassional cash deposit can seem more suspicious to some banks
than others. This I know from personal experience. I was once told by a bank
teller that just asking about the reports was considered suspicious and
could trigger a report. I was trying to cash a check with the business owner
who banked there and wrote the check standing beside me.
We went across the street to my bank where they were used to seeing me
handle cash transactions and it didn't seem suspicious to them.
"Find a friendly banker" is still good advice.
You could just try paying your damn taxes.
