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?

To be honest with you, I don't think gambling with fake money through fake money gambling app will help an addicted gambler stop gambling, rather, it will only increase or intensify the urge to keep gambling with real money.
I will tell you how, imagine a scenario where you are gambling with fake money and along the line, you won let's say $50,000 in fake money, how would you react to that?
An addicted gambler will say to him or her self, "had this been real money, this $50,000 would have been a lot of money for me to spend".
That thought alone can drive that gambler into continuing to gamble with real money.
At the end of it all, you discover that the fake money gambling app only helped the addicted gambler to Stay away from gambling with real money for just a short period of time.

@Fivestar4everMVP and @Rruchi man you both are right, I think there is a better and a more lasting way to kill gambling addiction and gambling with fake money is not one of those quality and lasting way to kill addiction. But one of the things we should note is that, for what purpose is the gambler breaking away from gambling, is it because the gambler is losing money or because the addiction is taking a hold on their real life and affecting them negatively?
This question needs to be answered because, one needs to set the priority clear if a gambler wants to break an addiction then the best way is a total withdrawal from any form of gambling, and shift attention to another positive real-life activity.
But if the player wants to take a break because he loses money constantly then use the fake app with no real money to gamble and build the skills before going back to a real gambling platform to test out the skills build on the free app.
