Stake Question
I am being staked in the 2007 WSOP ME. If I were to win lets say like a million dollars how would it work out with differentiating between the money I made and the portion my stakers made. There has to be a easy way to do this as I am aware of tons of ppl that have cashed while being staked. It wouldn't make sense for me to pay tax on the whole sum and then to pay tax on their income too. Any help appreciated.

Re: Stake Question
I am saying as far as the IRS goes. Obviously the form they give me would say I won a million but I didn't really win a million as half of it goes to my staker. Do you see what I am saying?

This is like when I was in my 20's writing screenplays worrying about what I was gonna say at the Oscars.

Re: Stake Question
Thayer tells me I'm wrong and there is no form this year. You'll have to issue your backers W2's yourself, etc.
