i just met with my accountant hour ago and he decided being that i was a full time student last year even my 60k I made i could file as gambling winnings and not as a professional thus avoiding self employment tax. Poker was a part time job for me so id assume it would be the same for you. My accountant doesnt specialize in gambling tax and he seemed to have a loose interpreation of the grey areas in the tax law.

Well ya thats fine since you were a full time student you were a professional student not a professional gambler.
