You have no option but to talk to your dad. You are a compulsive gambler and the thing you should be most scared of is that you will continue to self-destruct. You are in the UK? Get on your PC NOW and search for Gamblers Anonymous UK and that site will offer a phone number you can call right now. Find out where your nearest meeting is and get there - preferably with your dad because you are young but, if his presence will inhibit you, just get there anyway.
Don't for a moment imagine there is an alternative to GA. I've seen kids like you who didn't take that first step. Few reached 25 years of age.
Gambling is addictive, more addictive than drugs, stay away from it.
I don't blame you too much because many people gamble (and most of them lose) at some point in their lives. So sooner or later, you would gamble anyway. The only way out is to stop playing. It just happened in your life, you've lost £500. That's all. You've got something to remember when you get to your 60ies. But make sure you don't gamble again, never.
Step 1: Admit you are a gambling addict and get help. Until that happens, all the money in the world won't help.
Step 2: Ask EVERYONE you can find what THEY will pay you to DO. Then DO as much of it as possible. You officially don't have a life until you clean up the mess you CREATED.

first off you should not have an ebay account at 15 so when they ring up and they will ring up they will have to discuss the guys £150 with the account holder.
looks like your only option is to tell your dad as if the account is in his name he will be the one who will have the debt collection letters /bailiffs one his doorstep.
as far as the gambling is you have broken the law at 15 so you should confess to this at the same time.if all this is impossible you will just have to sell more of your stuff and get ebay off your back first before they come knocking.
if you successfully rob the federal bank you would have paid your debt and have a couple dozen mil spare.
