Sometimes I just really want to gamble because I miss the excitement, but I know should not do it, so I just play some games in demo mode with fake credits. After im done, I don't feel like risking real money anymore. This is a good technique to stop gambling in a stupid compulsory way.

This method looks good, but I personally gamble curiosity and usually always wins in front when I came back to play and Defeat, this makes me curious and looking for ways to win by making free trial. after feeling confident with my new experiment back to play with real money win in front then lost the next. This cycle makes people addicted to gambling  Grin

Not for me as I have good enough confidence in my self-control that I will only spend an affordable amount in gambling. I only use the free money mode to test the game, mainly to check if it is provably fair as it claims to be.

If you really want to play demo mode than why can't you just play some video games? why do you need to play only gambling site games?

I think if you really want to stop gambling than you shouldn't play even demo mode also because after some time it may lead you to play with real money.

The Gambler must be able to control themselves and determine the target just spend a little money to gamble may be 5% of your income
if it loses stop and if  wins immediately  withdrawal repeat in the next week in the same way

Yes, sometimes it is very fun to gamble but i just can afford to lose money, so I play in demo mode,

even though it is not as thrilling as gambling with real money, but at least I got half of the excitement

No, I don't. One of my friends does, and he was "winning" in demo mode with fun money that he put  in some BTC and lost it all.
So far I can control myself with gambling.

taking a break - expect delayed responses

I sometimes play demo to get a feel of the gameplay, but it's not really the same as there isn't any excitement.

As for using it to quit, it could work for some people, but I feel that for some people, it would lead them to gamble more as they see how many fake credits they've won and try it for real with real money.

it's a good method, but for most people it will not work, for the gambler who has a hobby, it's not very influential, because they are already accustomed to using real money and they also use money from the gambling proceeds to continue their lives  Grin

its good but not all person can do that coz most gamblers prefer to have the thrill of playing with your own money, playing in demo mode doesnt give that much thrill specially when you are winning Smiley

Well, i rarely play demo mode with fake credits because i think it's kinda wasted your time. i'm gamble not because the excitement but because want more profit. but once i play demo just for fun and killing time.

Plating the demo mode still does not help as there is no such excitement and tension in the game which gives me the feeling while I am actually playing a real game. Demo mode also does not help you in getting mentally stronger this only makes you take unmanaged risky decisions in the real game.

Exactly... Because in the real game you're staking your real money that you need...

I usually play 5-10 mins in DEMO to know the UI and what the site is capable of.

Then - real money play Cheesy Otherwise it's not fun.

But remember always to play with just the amount you are ready to lose.

Playing gambling in demo mode is just similar to playing video games. No difference in my view. To get rid of urge playing gambling I go for other activities. Trail accounts are not useful for my case.

So what is the point of gambling anyway if you only used demo mode with fake credits? You wont get nothing on it and you will waste your time by doing that. At least you can deposit a little amount to play it and try to control yourselves. May be 0.01 credit to try is not too much for trying some site after winning it just withdraw it. There is no need to stop gambling by doing demo play, you can stop it by yourselves if you can control it although you are using real money to play
