Play Money Anyone?

Last night, one of my horse(guy I regularly stake at Poker) sent me an urgent message to give him a call immediately. I figured he needs a stake at his regular game of $30+$3 MTT at Pokerstars or he saw an overlay somewhere and he wants to give me a headsup.

So I called him, he immediately said that he's on a serious downswing and I told him I just got back from the Philippines and do not have enough dough but I can ship him $50 at the moment but he said he still has $400 on his account and all he needs is for me to transfer some play money to his account. I thought he was kidding, who the hell transfer play money, I asked him what's going on, he said he played a lot of MTT's lately and constantly bubbling, not getting ITM and seem to have lost his mojo.

I told him not to bother playing those kind of games because he will not learn anything from it and advised him to downgrade to low MTT's and his answer is, "I'm having fun playing these non-real money games, Are you going to help me or not?". I just shook my head and helped out the poor guy.
