Betting in England (Tax Laws Question)

Does anyway know for those who live in England when they bet the English betting shops in person or bet online, do they have to pay taxes on their winnings and what is the rate.
And what are the rules for Americans living in England. Are they allowed to have an online account?

THE ART AND SCIENCE OF PICKING GOLF WINNERS
1. CLOSER with CHARACTER. Certain guys see the finish line and cross it and others are destined for second place.
2. RELAXED CONFIDENCE, FOCUS and a HUNGER to win. It's a mental game and their mind has to be in the right frame with a determination and focus. As Harry Vardon said: "To play well you must feel tranquil and at peace. I have never been troubled by nerves in golf because I felt I had nothing to lose and everything to gain."
3. COURSE. Does the course layout favor the strengths of the golfer and does it expose their weaknesses. Previous form can change immediately for those who feel comfortable on a course and its greens.

Does that include betting online with those shops like William Hill.
I can't bet them from the states because of the laws here, but I need to have a friend do it over there and was worried about their tax implications of having an online account for me. I know americans can get in person over there but wonder if they live there are they allowed to be online. She is a student over there for two years.

Thanks for the advice Dave. Forgot to ask, how did that thing work out with the girlfriend and what you found on the computer. Inquiring mind.
