Why would that be? This isnt a tax case and I am sure Gutshot pay appropriate corporation and business rates.
Taxation of gambling winning would have huge impact on the racing, bingo, lottery and casino industries all of which have seemed to have done well lobbying the government, there would be uproar if they started doing this.

The National Lottery too - it'd reduce the appeal of it, and with new games running for the London olympics etc, the government needs the lottery to do well.
