With the recent tax law in the USA on casino gambling — including poker tournaments and cash games — is it still worth playing in Las Vegas?

Well, I think the new laws only affect the professionals and the high rollers since they have to fill up their IRS documents according to their full-time job.
If you are just a recreational gambler playing with a few hundred or a couple of thousand dollars, you don't have to worry about them.

A small change will not affect most players much, because most people only play for fun. As for those who consider gambling as their main profession, there will probably be a small impact.
