 They'll ask to see your Report of International Transportation of Currency and Monetary Instruments FinCEN 105 (formerly CF 4790) and when you don't produceit, they will confiscate your money.

 You can take as much cash as you like over the border but if you have $10+ you need to fill out that form.  Also you can't split the amount between you and a spouse or a friend... it will be confiscated.

 Fill out the form.

 Tell them you blew the wad at the casino.
Honestly I haven't done it for bitcoin so I don't know... I guess you could just tell them you bought bitcoin.

 Sure it was earned but not declaring it is a good way to get it confiscated.  Not good advice.
