If you win money in a Super Bowl bet on Sunday, remember while you're celebrating that Uncle Sam can be a bit of a party crasher.

No matter where you wager — whether at a casino, through a pool or fantasy league, or at your neighbor's annual bash — the IRS expects you come to clean each year at tax time.

"Any gambling winnings you receive is considered income by the IRS," said CPA Mark Luscombe, principal analyst at Wolters Kluwer Tax & Accounting in Chicago. "You have to report it."

Roughly 22.7 million Americans are expected to wager an aggregate $6 billion on Sunday's matchup between the New England Patriots and the Los Angeles Rams in Atlanta, according to a recent survey from the American Gaming Association. Of those bettors, 1.8 million plan to bet illegally through a bookie, and others are expected to place wagers through online offshore books.

Top 10 Casino Stocks For 2019: UGI Corporation(UGI)

Advisors' Opinion:
  • [By Reuben Gregg Brewer]

    Utility stocks are generally considered conservative investments that reward shareholders over the long term with sizable dividends that grow slowly and steadily over time. With the S&P 500 Index's yield hovering around 2%, the bar for yield is set pretty low today. That said, investors should think twice before jumping at utilities like UGI Corporation (NYSE:UGI), Atmos Energy Corporation (NYSE:ATO), and MGE Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:MGEE), which offer little if any yield advantage over an S&P 500 Index fund.

    Investors seemed to be in a sector-shifting mood on Friday, because various measures of stock market performance went in different directions. Some areas of the market, including small-cap stocks and big technology names, were largely lower for the day. Yet the Dow Jones Industrial Average set another all-time high, and the broadest benchmarks stayed close to unchanged. Even so, amid the cross-currents of the market, some stocks suffered substantial losses, with a particular emphasis on those that had seen impressive gains recently. GTx (NASDAQ:GTXI), Tilray (NASDAQ:TLRY), and United Natural Foods (NASDAQ:UNFI) were among the worst performers on the day. Here's why they did so poorly.
