FOREIGN GAMBLING ARE TAXABLE IN THE USA FOR CITIZENS AND RESIDENT ALIENS
Gambling isn't taxable in USA for alien visitors unless you win a jackpot or a price issue from a tournament, etc. YOU DO NOT PAY TAXES ON BLACKJACK WINNINGS IF YOU ARE FROM A FOREIGN COUNTRY.
We've discussed it many times, just read this thread from start to end:

Blackjack IS NOT TAXABLE unless canadians (or other foreign citizen) file as pros. Take the time to read the links I provided:

Yes. In general, withhold at a rate of 30% on gambling proceeds won in the United States if that income isn’t effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business and isn’t exempted by treaty.
Also, no withholding is required on nonbusiness gambling income from Blackjack, Baccarat, Craps, Roulette, or Big 6 Wheel.

Unless specifically excluded by treaty, Tribal governments paying gambling winnings to nonresident alien individuals, or nonresident alien tribal members, would use Form 1042-S, Foreign Person's U. S. Source Income Subject to Withholding, to report the distributions.
Winnings paid to a nonresident alien from blackjack, baccarat, craps, roulette, or big-6 wheel are excluded from the reporting requirement.
