Here's how I do it, the old fashioned way.

I write down each session on paper. A session is either a) a tournament, or b) a cash game. For cash games, I define a session as a given game (LHE, for example) at a given stakes level in a given day.

There used to be a great free poker diary online, but that disappeared about 3 years ago. The one the Hendon Mob has on their site is better than nothing, but its cumbersome to use and the sort function is nothing like the old mypokerdiary.com

As for what the IRS thinks, my CPA friend says that as long as a system for reporting is internally consistant and there is the impression that it represents an honest attempt to comply, the IRS is fine with it. There is no GAAP regulation for gambling.

Do they think my way is fine? No idea. I've never been audited in my life.
