On Nov. 1, 2009, the first night of our 14-day cruise, I hit $8,000 playing KENO, winning on my usual 6-spot of numbers. I hit 5 out of 6 and then upped my bet to $5/spin to win that $8k. While sitting at the bar some nights later, I hit 7 out of 8 for $1,650 and did that again that same night!
Since each jackpot was over $1,200, they issued me tax forms. I never had to pay any taxes on it because I claimed the $11300 gambling winnings and claimed $11300 in losses which equals $0 taxes to be paid. :)
Has anyone ever hit a jackpot on slots on the ships?
