It's considered a source of income and therefore taxable. The person choosing to continue gambling with that income and perhaps losing it, is not relevent as far as the IRS is concerned. Moreover, your getting ahead of yourself in the accounting....if you sit and the table and lose....you don't have to have any tax withheld as you won't pay any. And if you win one day, and lose the next, the amount of the loss IS able to be taken against the income from the winnings...so you don't pay tax only on winnings...but NET winnings.

If you work in New York and live in New Jersey where do you collect unemployment benefits?

This depends on where you work and how your pay check is issued, ie which state your unemployment insurance is paid to. The state that INSURES you against unemployment is the one that pays you. Do not confuse this with tax filing as you will file taxes in the state that you reside.Also relevant is the fact that you can move to another state after you turn unemployed and still collect your unemployment money from our earlier host state. Do bear that in mind.
