Hi guys, this is a very serious question:
I'm a European-born citizen with a passion for gambling, and have won a fair amount of money from it. A few hundred bucks, nothing more. I played at bookies like Pinnacle, William Hill. Now, here in Europe, online sports gambling is perfectly legal, so I had nothing to worry about: no tax returns from gambling earnngs and the like.

I had just becomed a USA resident(Lawfull Permanent Resident), but I am not yet fully settled in America, will take a few months Though I have to file tax returns from the first year I got in..
I'm gonna be in Europe, for a few months. Can I still gamble, with my registered European address( still valid?) at Pinnacle, or any other bookie? I'm asking if this is perfectly legal. And will I have to report gambling earnings won outside the US?
I know, for example thet PinnacleSports doesn't accept US players.
But I'm still residing in Europe also, and will place my bets physically from European location..

Pinnacle doesn't accept uk players not sure about other European countries

But as a USA resident you won't be able to play at pinny

Gonna rephrase this: Can I gamble, as a European, from a European location, with the same address that I used so far, whilst also being a US resident?
I DO NOT intent to log into the Pinnacle account from the US.

Yes, I still have those. My worry is that, won't I have to report my gambling earnings from abroad to the IRS when I file my tax return?
My account at Pinnacle where I successfully withdrawn money from it it's still there.

1. You can still gamble in Europe, but once you become a perm resident in US, you would have to pay taxes for that income if you win of course (by law you're required, but obviously no one is gonna make you do it if you choose not to)
2. Once you make a perm move to States, you can either get a proxy and continue to gamble with that Pinny acct or you can find another book that accepts US residents - books like 5 Dimes and Heritage would be a good start
