Many gamblers who suffer from gambling addiction try to think that way, that they are paying the casio. to use their games and to have some fun. However I have seen a colleague of mine who tried to quit gambling by playing free simulators in the internet , Gaminators and Hot fruits simulators and told me , this is it, now I can quit gambling easily.
The reality though was that after playing with simulators for one week he then got to the casino and lost a big amount.The only true way to quit is to ask professional help.
