No, The interpretation by MGM is that winnings are not taxed unless the player wins $5,000 over the initial buy-in. At that point, the 3% MS tax comes into effect. the 300-1 rule applies as well...

Actually the 3% applies across the board to everything. I hit a $50,000 bad beat jackpot and got hit with the 3%. Not sure the 3% is dependant in any way to the size of a tourney buyin. You win money, you get taxed. My win was at the Grand

The 3% does not apply to poker prize pool monies, unless the net winnings are $5,000.

Actually, I've been guilty of using that myself. Must be a generational thing. I wonder if Johnny is in his late 40's like I am?

Seems like you should know that he doesn't LOOK like he's in his late 40's, because here you said:

I still wonder if you are the real Johnny Grooms here, since your first post was a racial slur (and the Johnny I met and spoke with face to face a few times seemed to have way more class than that).

The thing is, he doesn't look like he is, and I didn't ask him at the time just how old he was.
