My CPA told me that I would need to give my coaches a 1099 tax form if I wanted to write my coaching expenses off*. Otherwise I cannot.

*Downside of this is that the coach would have to pay taxes on the coaching fees.

coaches have to pay taxes on money earned from coaching, and yes, you can write off any expense related to poker coaching if you are filing as a pro, just like you can write off your cardrunners membership.

also, i'm 95% sure that you're in no way responsible for giving your coach a 1099 form. they handle their own reporting of their coaching and you just note to your accountant your coaching fees as part of your expenses.
