    Gambling losses are deductible to the extent of gambling winnings. The best proof is the casino statements for those who use player cards.

    The next best thing is a contemporaneous log of your gambling activity. Failing that, you can try to rely on memory to estimate your activity.

    Needless to say, the further down you go in that list the less chance your deduction would be allowed.
