What are the benefits of Chapter 11 versus Chapter 13?

I have mounds of credit card debt, a car that I owe more then I could sell it for, and a house that is in the same condition – and our income has taken a hit and I can no longer afford to make payments.

I am considering Bankruptcy. What would happen to all this debt? What are the major differences between Ch.11 and 13?

I live in Texas, if that helps.
