Default Re: Class President Robs Bank after running up Poker Debt

[ QUOTE ]
This is a dumb question, but how do people accumulate debt through online poker? The only way I know of getting money to a poker site is through a bank account since almost all credit cards dont deal with gambling sites. Anyone?

Easy. Just make a deposit from your bank account when you don't have enough to cover it. Often, the bank will pay the EFT, and you'll be left with negative balance in your checking account. If you have 2 or 3 checking accounts, it would probably be pretty easy to run up 5k in debt.

I honestly have no idea why banks pay these if you don't have enough money in the account, but they do. A couple of years ago, Party took a deposit of mine from the wrong checking account (I had 2 registered with them) and the bank paid it and left me with like a -1200 balance.
