We’re going to assume that you won more than $1,200. You’re going to have to fill out a tax form.

You’ve won the jackpot, and you’re about to walk out of the casino a winner. Suddenly, you realize what you’re looking at. You put money in the slot machine, pull the lever (or press the button, on most modern machines), and watch the symbols come up.
