Question 1: If I were to get a wire transfer from bookmaker, mid 5 figures, do the banks notify the IRS or anything like that

Question 2: If I were to open a Pinnacle account with an address I have in Canada, would I be able to make bets in the USA or would they not let me because my IP address is there

How can he make bets in the US if his IP is in Canada? If he uses a different computer here wont that trigger a new IP in the States?
Please clarify as I am trying to figure this out as well. Thx
