OP, who do you owe the debt to? Your credit card co.? The first thing you need to do is close your poker accounts and uninstall the software.

Try your bank for a loan. Ask friends, or your parents. You should probably talk to you friends/parents/a profession about your gambling problem.

Good luck.

just double your bet on blackjack until you win. first bet 600, if you lose, 12k, and keep going until you win. if you were able to play 6000 worth without having the money, you should be able to go higher

I don't understand what you mean.

Are you saying there's no way to win at poker online?

well in your second post you got angry and told people not being helpful to fsck off. if you actually thought everyone was gonna be kind and helpful either before or after that remark, then that was your second stupid mistake.

Making a mistake is one thing, making the same mistake many times over a period of time for a total hit of $6k that you don't have is an entirely different matter.

How old are you?
