Does playing brainless gambling games makes one dull?

What kind of question is this? Games don't affect you unless you play all day,maybe around the clock, and since games are involved with gambling many turned addicts due to the higher time frame spent on gambling. Playing a mahjong game or chess game won't make you a very smart person either, maybe only in the game but that's it, you called slot games a brainless game and I can it the simplest game. Slots games are not puzzle or math solving kind of game, if you need something like that you should find them, but engaging in slots won't make anyone a dullard.

I don't think that there is a significant effect ones dullness if we're playing those brainless or luck based games.
There is no connection IMHO if we keep on playing about that. But if you are tired and come from other activities, that can make you dull.
So, don't gamble when you're too tired whether you play skill-based or luck-based games because that will for sure going to affect you.

If this brainless strategy makes you enjoy the game, then why is it going to make you dull? Anything that excites you or evokes your interest can never make you dull; what makes you dull is doing something that you don’t like or forcing yourself to do it.
I’ve played a no-strategy game, or, in your terms, a brainless one, and I find it exciting. You just do it without thinking about why you pick it, and sometimes it’s profitable.

What you said is true. When someone forces themselves to do something they are not akin to, no matter how sweet and brainy such activities look outside, it will not benefit the person doing it and may even end up making them dull. It is viseversa of what OP said in fact, because both fun and excitement are also forms of stimulation which can make an individual's brain function better if it kinds of enjoy doing it and it doesn't causes any harm such as addiction or intoxications. In this case the person is going to make money from it so such excitement of expecting profit makes it more interesting and not otherwise. So yes, it is you that sees it as brainless but if it really requires some brain work however little and also brings money to the table, then it should not be considered as brainless.

From my experience, I'd say yes, slots, dice, and other games that don't require strategy can sometimes be boring, as if there's nothing interesting. That's why I rarely visit slot machines anymore, because I've gotten bored and have chosen to gamble on poker or sports betting, which keep me entertained and always offer something new to do.

But it all really comes down to the individual gambler, as each gambler has a different mindset.

Gambling games can't make anyone dull just because they are not iq games. What is capable of making a slow is when he focuses too much on gambling and neglects doing other things like keeping the Brain active by studying and gaining knowledge, this is obviously when people get overly addicted to it. Gambling moderately doesn't make anyone dull, the type of game doesn't actually matter

I also think about gambling without having to eat, and you've got an empty stomach will make you dull. And I agree that neglecting other things that could be a factor with our brains having to be in need of more energy, and we don't do anything about it, that will seriously make our thinking dull, and acts on those moments could show some real signs of it. So, in short that playing those games that OP mentioned won't have any effect to ourselves and can't make us dull. It is the actions that we do in accordance of how our brain is tasking our body to function.

The more research and analysis is done on these games, I think it is just waste of time. No skill is required for this game. Those who play such games do not have much effect on their brain. For long-term brain development, I think that such games should be selected that have the advantage of analysis. The more the brain follows a simple path, the more its performance will decrease. Of course, every gambler should exercise his brain properly.

[_BlackStar]

Slots are just one of those games that I find enjoyable - they don't require much analysis to play, just a few steps and then I start spinning. Slots can become boring if played for too long - but they often offer fun for the first 10 to 30 minutes. Especially for slots - I don't think too much because it's just a game where winning depends on luck, so I just make a deposit and play.

I am making this comment for those people who do not use their intelligence or who decide to gamble only depending on luck. If gamblers are too stupid or if gamblers have no idea about gambling, then they decide to gamble directly depending on luck. I am saying that I will not bet my money on gambling where I have to rely directly on luck. I see some gamblers gambling in such a way that they take some amount of money and fly a rocket, the rocket flies 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x or above and sometimes the rocket falls at 0x. When the rocket falls at 0x, all the gamblers who put money on the bet lose, but those who do not give up after the rocket goes to 1x or 2x and when the rocket falls at 3x, all these gamblers lose all their money. 
These are based on luck, so I always try to ignore them and instead try to play bets where I can use my skills and experience.

I don't know if am the only one that sees the word ''brainless'' as not the appropriate word to use in this context but however, whether you brainstorm on a game or not, they still depend on luck in order to win just that the luck for games like slots and dice it is very obvious that those games are completely based on luck, no skills, no strategies just roll it and whatever it turns out to that's just it. However, i don't think that those games make one to become dull just that you can get bored after making several attempts without winning.

If you try to do something useful every minute and strain your brain, then I think it will quickly end in a stroke or a heart attack  Gambling is designed for entertainment (and especially games like slots or dice) and that is how it should be perceived. Isn't it natural that people relax when they play? If I want to strain my brain, I'll choose some complex card game or even chess. But I don’t remember when I played games like that because I already have enough brain strain due to work/regular life.

On the contrary, these sort of games can be really fun for some gamblers, especially beginners who just started gambling and have little to no experience on gambling, hopping on the slot machine can be really exciting if you ask me. Because if you introduce a newbie to skill based games, it'll be even more boring for them because they have absolutely no idea of what they're doing and they'll lose more, and what's the fun in playing when you're losing all the time simply because you don't know what you're doing.

There are no brainless  games. No gambling game is superior to another. No supremacy.  

There are just people who will like slots and will prefer it to blackjack.  And there are people who will like both. There are also people who will prefer to bet on virtual football than the real deal. It is all by choice.

You are always engaging your brain unless the person is experiencing psychosis.

[Stalker22]

Brainless means something stupid or foolish. That is enough to let you know that slots, dices and roulettes are not brainless (stupid or foolish) games.

You gotta take the meaning of the word in context of statement, I meant, "brainless" word here as in playing games that does not require using brain.

You could say that many everyday activities are "brainless," in a way.  For example, when I mow the lawn, I do not have to use my brain.  Does that mean that I lose a few brain cells every few days for that activity?  Thats a dumb thought.  The human brain is always working, even when we are sleeping!  So, a person who spends a couple of hours a week doing a brainless activity is not going to become dull. However, a person who spends the majority of their waking hours in a passive, consumptive state is probably going to see at least a decline in their cognitive abilities over time.

They are not brainless game there are just game that requires no skill just as some users here have mentioned already, beside it won’t affect your brain any way , because is not only gambling you will be doing all your life you have other activities, like going to work , spending time with your love ones stuff like that . So betting on casino games won’t make you dull is just for a short while you being dull is on you may be you stop doing some other activities that usually  help to boost one brain power and stuff .

Who told you that you’re not using your brain when you’re playing slots? It might not be a complex usage but surely your brain is computing things and this will keep your brain a little active. Besides, you’re not spending the whole day on your screen gambling - you’d still leave to do other activities to help your brain improve its function.

You don’t have to complicate things before considering them learning or helpful to the brain, fun things can also help your brain too.

Perhaps it’s true that we might use a less power of the brain when playing some games in a casino especially those you mentioned as they require less or almost nothing to do with thinking as basically they depend on luck. However, it’s impossible not to use the brain in any instance, basically in biology; the human brain works all day even during sleep hours, only the body retires but the brain and mind stays at work hence it’s not possible not to use brain in any game as they still require you to choose between this or that in taking your chances.

Well, I honestly do not think there is any such thing as brainless games, for even the games you mentioned as an example are not brainless if you ask me, except if reasoning is different between humans and gambler.

I say this because I've never seen myself playing a slot game or any other game you mentioned in your example with absolutely nothing in my brain, I think alot and when ever I am playing games like slot, even though the game itself is one that doesn't put any strain on the brain, I still think about something, either about the game or something else to do with my life so as to better it, I do not how some people can go without them thinking about anything, for I still think even when I am sleeping which often times will look like I am dreaming, but in reality, it's simply just what I have in mind while asleep.

So, in the nutshell, I just want to say that I do not believe there is any such things as brainless games, except when and if the party has some kind of issues with their brain.

All those games you listed are casinos games -- has nothing to do with being brainless.. That you feel it isn't fair enough to gamble on, doesn't mean others don't try their luck and still get the best out of it. If it makes them "dull"? Well, you sound like someone who has zero clue about what gambling is.

Okay, I get it... I think it's just a problem of poor choice of words to express exactly what you mean, but I got you! There's nothing on planet earth that involves human actions, but without the brain... Are you just trying to take us back to Basic studies about the "Nervous" system again?

My question to you is, is there anytime we don't use our brains?

If you are going to talk about gambling games that does not require skills, then you should consider those feelings of excitement, anticipation and sadness that comes with playing those games. That's still the brain working even though there were very minimal mental analysis and calculations. You can't really say the brain isn't put to use when playing these kinds of games, there are still some moments when you begin to think what next to do to make sure you win. You might not be putting facts and figures together but the brain still goes through alot.

I think that mindless games have little meaning, but I can't say that it makes the player boring. Maybe he just wanted to spend time like that at a certain moment and won't do it anymore, or maybe he's trying to relieve the accumulated stress at work in this way. Although as for me, I'm more interested in just playing and trying out different strategies, so I don't have a mindless game. And in general, each player plays as he sees fit, because gambling is an expression of oneself to some extent.
