Default WTF is she talking about? Tax q

So for my taxes last year, I gave my poker info to the CPA my family uses, along with everything else. For whatever reason he wound up not using the poker data. Not sure why, maybe he thought it just wasn't that much money?

Anyway, I decide that I really do need to be square on this, so I call them to see about amending my return. Someone from the office tells me the following (more or less, she woke me up when she called back, so I was kind of out of it):

Since you didn't itemize and since you took the standard deduction of 7500 (or whatever it is when no one claims you as a dependent), you don't need to claim it. Also because you didn't receive a 1099 (or is it 1090?) form.

WTF does she mean?
