Using PokerTracker to help with paying taxes

[Hans Gruber]

This is my first year of claiming my poker winnings on my taxes. I have a full-time job, and I treat poker as a hobby, so I can't file as a professional. It looks like I have to claim all of my winning "sessions" as other income, and then deduct all of my losing sessions.

Is there any easy way in PokerTracker to print out or view each day that I played? I'm fully aware of the Session Notes tab, but that lists every table from every day, and it can be very tedious to add all of that up.

For those of you that use pokertracker to help with your taxes, what methods do you use to log all of your session information for tax purposes? Do you just create a spreadsheet based on your data?

Also, when you actually file your taxes, do you need to send proof of your poker winnings/losses with your 1040?

I'm planning on having a CPA take care of this for me, but I wanted to find the easiest way to get all of my session information for 2006.
