Default Re: Am I liable to pay for poker debt accrued now that poker is banned

First of all gambling and playing poker online are 2 different things, and I dont think they can do anything for playing poker, thats why noone has ever been prosecuted for it.
Second of all if you contact collection agency within 30 days of recital of the letter and let them know that the debt is for gambling (better to due via certified mail, so you have proof), they legally can't send it to your credit report thus they cant affect your credit in anyway, they can still send you to chex systems so you can't open checking account, however there are many smaller banks which will still open an account for you despite being in chex systems, even bigger ones will do it as it depends on branch manager, they can override the system. So don't worry oopsydaisy pokersites cant do nothing for screwing them over, just like we can't when they steal our money
