Am I right to expect a lot more folks attempting to file as poker pros in the 2018 tax year? A sole proprietor will get a 20% deduction on his/her pass through income. US based players will be much better off winning WSOP main as a "pro" in 2018 than as an amateur
The tax reform bills are being written to try to prevent people from gaming the pass-through provision (see restrictions around "service" professions).

How would this impact a poker pro? I don't know! Once we see the final bill, we'll know more. But there will be a lot of money paid to tax attorneys next year to figure it out.
