You need to man up, I don't believe the no one will buy my cards or tv's or lease my car, you're just asking too much for it. 

You just caused a major headache for your friend, so clean this up. Sell something major for a discount and let your friend and the bookie know so they see you're trying, then get on a plan.

Losing 7k in one week and you don't have the money is devastating for your future.  Be fortunate. Take this as a lesson, pay it off and don't gamble ever again or next time it'll be 16k.

You will not stick to a payment plan, do not kid yourself.  You have proven to be reckless with your lot in life, pre bookie.  It is the American way to run from your debt, no one is accountable anymore and because hey it is only credit and it can't be my fault for poor decisions.  Talk to a parent if you have the balls and are serious, but it sounds as though you have talked yourself into bailing on a friend and a debt.  Funny thing you would be the same guy on here with two pages of comments if you did not get paid 7K?

You used someone's account, so you must know this guy, probably a friend of yours or something like that.Be an adult and talk to the bookie. Be honest and fair with him. Don't lie! Don't make excuses! The bookie will probably be upset and add interest to what you owe, but agree on a set amount every month.

Then eliminate all "non-essential" expenses in your life. Don't go out and drink, don't go out to eat. Stay in, save money, etc. Work, work, work, maybe even pick up a second job. Try and work 60-70 hours per week. That will show the bookie you are serious about paying him back

Finally, you need to look at yourself. Examine why you put yourself in this situation. Stop wagering, if you don't have the money. Seriously, consider GA. Get help.

After 6 months, you should be all good with everything without having to make wholesale changes in your life.

Why didnt you just tell him to run like all you would have done!

Can't help but write...I used to be a Brooklyn BM. First of all, face this guy head on. Apologize profusely and offer what you can pay and KEEP TO. Do not offer or agree to something you cannot keep your word to, as it is insulting and dishonest. It will piss the guy off...One other note--I'm hoping this is an "established" guy and not some (old school term) renegade. If it is, meaning some outfit with no connections, you might have a more difficult time working out a deal...
