Onemoretry, I have had many Vegas jackpots where nothing was withheld. And I have had them where federal was withheld. I think it depends on the policy of the particular casino.
At my home casino at Biloxi, they always deduct 3% non-refundable state tax only, never federal. They will deduct federal only if specifically asked to do so by the winner.

Awesome deal! Connecticut famously charges Olds 7%.

At least mine is withholding only, but it usually vanishes at tax time because we are taxed on Gross AGI and no writeoff ability like the Fed if you itemize. It’s still optional in Ct, but get ready to write a big check if you are under withheld.
