An alternative to gambling with money.

[_act_]

I support your opinion. If a gambler has an addiction and wants to get rid of it he needs to give up gambling completely for a while and try to find something to do which will bring him pleasure and allow him to distract himself. This is a difficult task, but it is solvable if the effort and follow his goal. I may be wrong, but it seems to me that computer games can distract a person while he is experiencing a craving for gambling.

You are not wrong, if someone is not idle but busy with another thing, it will help solve gambling problem if he determines to solve it. Also people can get addicted if not having source of income, having another means to earn money will also help, the work can keep an addict busy to avoid gambling or to avoid gambling too much.

The alternative of gambling with fake money will not satisfy a gambling addict, they can only hold for a moment to stop but later if they have a little money they will aim for real gambling. Honestly that doesn't really help at all, because an addict who wants to quit should focus on fighting himself and not fighting fake money bots.

Fake money can not help, it will only let them think they can gamble with real money again and make money from it.

Fake money cannot help addicted gamblers because it will just increase their cravings to gamble back using the real money. Any activities which is still related to gambling it will never give any help even if we are using fake money because the person still doing this and can access it easily. If the person really want to forget gambling they should erase all means that can trigger their hunger to gamble back again.

It's a simulation type of gambling, it doesn't really help you forget about gambling but it entices you more to do it after testing.
The more you do it and the more you win using a simulator will make you do it in real gambling because of the confidence you earned from your skills.
In short, it worsens the idea of forgetting about the gambling addiction.
If there's a cure, then it's to minimize it by being active at different hobbies or stop entirely by forgetting about making bets.

What is your opinion on Fake money gambling apps, do you recognize the potential I think they have to assist in reducing the number of gamblers who loose real money?

It seems that the apps that you lists came from big companies. So, my expectations was wrong as I thought you are talking about those apps that we see on the advertisements on youtube and on the apps that we download on our phone. Gambling apps like slots, bingo, card games, and fish shooter.

You cannot deposit real money on them except you can pay to remove ads and to increase your in game money which is still a fake money. They are fun and effective to kill the time but not as effective to permanently stop gambling since the games or the graphics offered on these apps are totally different from the gambling site that we are playing.

They're just normal games that could kill time but a person who is already addicted to gambling won't be contented in it. They will always look for some games where they could bet. It will only make their condition worse. I guess focusing on other things can lose their focus and their craving for gambling.

Using fake money gambling application might be a good platform to curb gambling addiction but it would fail if there is no will power or determination to quit. Like you rightly pointed out mate that these application was mainly designed to improve gambling skills and experience. It might serve as a tool of increasing the addiction. After using the application to master some skills, most addicts might want to apply those skills to real gambling. Its just like advising a sex addict to curb his sexual drive by watching pornography.

  Good point, but in the end you messed it up - studies show that the availability of pornography reduces the number of sex crimes. It turns out that this serves as a relevant replacement.
This will not work in gambling - compare your emotions from, for example, losing (or winning) a million fake dollars and real ones. I think the difference is huge.

[romero121]

I'm in much need of this. Every few weeks I gamble and loss what I've earned. The very first day of the month have disappointed me. Hard earned money 0.017BTC got busted within seconds. This all happened out of greed. O God what a sorrowful start. The funds were in control of my girl. I took her mobile and spend it. Along with the same she have managed to save 0.37eth little by little. That too have busted. Anyhow new problem is gonna start when my girl see's the mobile.

The most popular suggestion you can get when trying to quit gambling especially when you are continuously loosing money is mostly that you should just stop gambling itself. This sounds like an almost impossible task for many who are already hooked to it and just hearing that alone is discouraging. A better suggestion and an alternative to quitting gambling completely is to start betting with fake money gambling apps. With FAKE MONEY GAMBLING APPS, you can continue gambling on the app even on live games, but with fake money. So in reality you can maintain the experience you derive from gambling and not loose any money except the fake one in the process.

Although the original idea behind the creation of such apps was to provide a platform were individuals can practice their betting skills without loosing money before actually gambling with real money, i still find it useful to those trying to quit because they keep loosing money.

In Order of user rating and for suggestion sake, some of the best fake money gambling apps according to user experience, core functionality & innovative solution are (please note that some of these apps still offer real gambling services, and if you really want to stop loosing money, you should avoid)

The idea is good but i think this will not be helpful at all. This app is only preparing the gambler itself to become a real good trader through developing his betting skills. And when he think he's ready to gamble with real money, that's when he'll start becoming more compulsive and then lose his real money. So the addiction for gambling will still likely to be develop after that. The only way to stop losing real money is never to gamble at all, and stay away from any activities related to money gambling.

Great point. Some urges can be compared to a dam that's struggling to hold water or a contracting spring and sexual tension is just like that. You can release it in many ways, for instance by masturbating and it's proven that without masturbation many "normal" people wouldn't be able to function in a society because their needs are so high that it's difficult to fulfill them in a normal relationship.
Gambling is different. It's not a tension, but rather alcohol that brings you pleasure every time you get a small dose, but you can overdose it and feel bad the next day. You can't satisfy a drunkard or a drug addict by letting them smell alcohol or drugs or play a drinking game. They need the real thing.

Well this is what will happen. We in gambling also clearly use emotions there so it will be very different when we play with real or fake money.
Playing with fake money doesn't give any sensation even if we gamble with a lot or a little bet, it's the same because we won't feel happy about it.

Doesnt really give any thrill and gambling addicts doesnt prefer on playing if they do know that they couldnt gain something which is really just a norm for people do mind off.
We could play on demo or fake money or digital funds but it wont really be giving out the sensation we are seeking when we do play actual or real funds thats why
people would really be looking on using real money because the thrill,excitement,fear,enjoyment will really be totally different when it comes to that.

[bitterguy28]

Using BTC was already an alternative because back then they were using fiat money and it worked because BTC still is a currency but the addiction persist.

Using Fake money is likely not going to work l, most of these gamblers find thrill in betting something with real value. What they need is something that will keep them occupied until they forget gambling.

or maybe this will be alternative when the gambler totally loss its money and seeking for something to enjoy His time while seeking for another capital to gamble?

because I know that gamblers get bored once they lose everything in hand and eager to find another money to play for.

while waiting this is the alternative but will not be completely take the aggression of gamblers to bet from legit money than this fake money.

I honestly think comparing gambling to what is a possible process of learning how to trade is weird since there's nothing to even prepare in gambling. Gambling is simply an activity or form of enjoyment where money is required to play and where most of the enjoyment comes from having the possibility of getting the money you spent back and more without any whatsoever requirement or study except for the game mechanics. I do agree with the alternative being not gambling though.

idk, pretty sure there are a lot of other games out there much more enjoyable than, well, dice. And if they can play without money, why play with money in the first place.

[Mr. Magkaisa]

If there is a demo trading in the exchange, here was also the same at fake apps gambling.
I just don't know what kind of help that can give this fake gambling apps anyway. Because as a gambler
if I just have a the money to play with in the gambling, why will I try the fake apps gambling?
Probably, it could be an alternative way if someone wants an amusement to play with in the gambling.

This is the same as just an experiment and actually using a demo account like this in my opinion is not a good thing to stop gambling habits, this will actually have an unfavorable effect because it will continue to be more motivated to play gambling again and again especially when our demo account wins with easy then indirectly there is an emotion that drives gamblers to play with real money.
This may be possible for some people who do have a different mindset and think that gambling with counterfeit money will make them better but for most of the others this is like fueling a fire which in this way will surely increase the desire to gamble. .

If there is no Win or Lose in it, it's not actually gambling, and this usually happens with fake money gambling, fake money will not give us satisfaction, especially if we use it to bet, because we can't feel the sensation when playing because this is just an imitation of money. which are actually.

Counterfeit money gambling applications are not effectively used to find thrills in playing gambling, but it looks like they can be used to find out or guess how to guess for profit, still this will not be profitable.

[ForMeritt]

If used as an alternative to gambling it seems less suitable, Gambling with counterfeit money will not satisfy you completely, in fact this does not include the depth of Gambling because it does not have elements of losing and winning. Gambling applications are very many, including such as playing slots, cards and they simulate real games made to gamble. gambling with counterfeit money it seems this is often called money Money / "Demo" account I don't know about it.

If you want to stop gambling you should just leave it, my advice is not to use this kind of application, because the purpose of this fake money gambling application will keep you connected to gambling, and will attract you into real gambling.

Substituting a paid gambling game with a free gambling game as a means of quitting is never really going to work. People get the rush of adrenaline or dopamines from winning actual money - aka taking a shortcut to wealth, even though they end up losing money in the long term that is how their brain has been tricked. It's akin to replacing cigarettes with those candy versions, it doesn't offer anything like the original experience. However substituting paid gambling with free to play games (ideally low on wasteful microtransactions and lootbox activity) can be a possible alternative, as it is a different type of entertainment and can keep you distracted at least through the initial hard separation with your old addiction.

Just like there are demo for trading, once you are no more a newbie and know how trading works, you do not need demo account again and you will prefer to use normal exchange account which is not demo to trade, no one will advice you to use an account that is demo account again and you will not want to use it because you are no more a newbie. Just as it is in trading, be it in gambling, the fake app are for beginners, not for people that have known how gambling sites are working, also not for addicts.

[AicecreaME]

Gambling apps that involves no money is still giving you an idea about how gambling works and you might be tempted to gamble again later on especially if you gain skills on those gambling apps.

If you really want to quit gambling, you should disconnect from any gambling games or activities, this might not look easy but slowly you can be good again, just stay committed on quitting and you can recover from that addiction.

I agree.

Playing in gambling apps as a way of rehabilitating yourself won't work because you'll get bored with fake money, and you're gonna think that you don't want to waste your time on such thing, so you'll start playing gambling again using real money. Gambling addiction can't be solve by playing a gambling app, it should be done by the help of professional and dedication to quit gambling for good.
