Tax evasion is a serious road to go down. Why not just pay your taxes like most honest citizens?

Well, the government is spending our money (and kids and grandkids and their kids and...) so well right now on illegal wars and unlimited welfare. I can understand why someone wouldn't want to feed the beast.

If taxing people at 100% is theft, at what % is it no longer considered theft?

No, you don't. There is no state tax in Nevada, so you are safe.

Once Nevada secedes from the US, you won't have to pay US taxes either. Until then, however, you do.

you have to be paying federal taxes on your winnings no matter where you reside. If the IRS finds out that you didn't report gambling winnings on your 1040 (tax return), they will send you to prison for a very long time.

No, max youll get a fine. Long time? Not a chance. No state income tax in nevada, but fed tax still aplys. Bet with a local, wont have any problems.
