Does playing brainless gambling games makes one dull?

[Eternad]

Certainly no. It won’t make a person dull, instead it will bring entertainment and fun, regardless if that certain game requires using your brain or not.

And just to make it clear, there is no dull moment with gambling, especially if you’re at the streak of winning. And even if losses start to appear, it won’t make you dull, but it will definitely make you a strategic gambler on how you will manage to minimize or overcome those losses.

I also don't see the reason why a person would feel dull when he does gambling regularly even if it's a pure luck-based game that doesn't require amy mental effort.

Putting gambling on their daily schedule is a stress-reliever for some people. It would never make them dull or even reduce how their brain works if they do gambling regularly.

It's said about brain that, "use it or lose it" — now, question being, do you think if person plays brainless gambling games such as slots, dice for major part of his/her daily routine, will it make him/her dull?

Edit: "brainless" as in playing gambling games that does not require using brain, I thought it was clear especially given examples.

Some questions are funny, and this is a typical example of it given above regarding gamblers who play slot games. Because the truth of the fact is that we have got 2 distinctive sets of people (i.e the smart and dull people), and as such, no matter how long a dull individual plays a game that requires the use of his/her brain, such individual can never be smart. And likewise the same thing goes to a smart person who can never be dull, simply because he/she chose to play slot games. Because also, slot games also requires the use of Brain work to be able to gamble effectively and responsibly.

It all depends on what exactly you expect from gambling. If we are talking about slots, then it is really not an intellectual game. Perhaps it is comparable to lotteries. Of course, it is not poker, where you are required to analyze a huge amount of often poorly structured and unclear information. In slots, you just need to press a button, and in lotteries, you just need to buy one or more lottery tickets. But slots are not played to develop intellectual abilities. Slots are about entertainment. In the vast majority of cases, you will lose, but at the same time, you may experience a thrill. It will seem to you that luck was closer than ever.

I can play slot games and any other totally luck based games for fun with hope of winning sometime, nothing serious, I don't like to worry myself so much in gambling. Whether it's luck based games or skill based games you still need luck to win, when I play games like sports bet that I need to analyze I choose not to overanalyze. I have enough activities that I use my brain to do, so if I choose to play a brainless game it doesn't mean that it'll numb my brain for other functions aside from gambling. We should try as much as possible to avoid being addicted to gambling and that is why I believe that we shouldn't put too much brain work into it.

I think it depends on each person's interests. I currently prefer slot gambling, where winning is purely based on luck, as there's no need for strategy or anything else that forces the brain to think. I just wait for a good spin and win. However, even so, I don't get bored of playing it over and over again, unless the game lasts long enough, then I get bored. But the option I do other than stop playing is sometimes I turn to games that are not the type of gambling.

It takes zero effort for the brain to process this and hence it is what the body likes to do which is why these games are so addictive. There are other games like dice which also follow the same procedure and hence always addictive if played for quite some time.

The games thag need some thinking like sports betting and poker they dont necessarily yield well to the ones with intelligence but specific skills related to that game. Of which I think sports does carry a lot of luck factor in it.

Brainless gambling games can be compared to scrolling through a social media feed. Usually, people who constantly play such games do it on autopilot, giving their brain a quick endorphin boost. I believe these games should be limited, as occasional cases can simply help disconnect from everyday stress, but if it becomes a regular habit, it turns into an addiction that interferes with life.

Games that lack mental engagement affects a person's way of having deeper thinking, understanding,calculative mindsets and even brainstorming.It usually dulls mental sharpness and the capability to thinking outside the box.Although some games lacks mental engagement and cognitive thinking, that where mental depreciation takes place.

I'm not sure of how people tend to play a game without their brains, or perhaps, you meant to say that they don't use a higher level of reasoning in these types of games, which i think it is very true for certain games, but not sure of the ones you mentioned because i don't play them either. The thing is, as long as you are awake, and playing to get a win, then it means that your brain is in action. We can't necessary say that because those types of games don't demand a lot of reasoning, then it is deemed to be called a brainless game. Let's just say that it takes less effort, but your brain is definitely in action.

I could remember someone sharing a thread about mental sports a few days back. Games like Poker, Chess and Blackjack were mentioned, and they where actual games that demands a lot of reasoning and IQ from a player or gambler as the case maybe. Other games might not be as tough as the ones mentioned, but the brain is still behind the actions.

The brain will work consciously according to an event, even if a gambler plays at casino A and they are unlucky and they move to another casino in the hope of getting lucky at the last casino and all they think about is how they get big multiplications there and they don't really think about whether their brains are dull or not almost all gamblers are like that. I personally find this game quite boring and there is no skill involved in this slot game at all. Gamblers just have to spin, spin, and spin, and the results are determined randomly and by luck.

in all the gambling I don't think that there's the one that I have a skill and with the skill you may use it to benefit there's no gambling platform that you come apply a skill and the benefit from it always or constantly, you and I know very well that the gambling is all about the risk and whoever that indulge into it knows that gambling is all about risk it's not all about learning the procedures or having a professional skill that will make you to win in gambling,winning is by chance and it is very clear

Playing slots for a long time without a break disrupts the brains dopamine and other chemical balances.
The brain is an organ that develops and produces. If time is spent on things that don't challenge the mind, it can make it dull.
Constantly watching slots can be hypnotizing.

Much more accurately, slot gambling requires no skill whatsoever; we can simply determine whether each spin is good or bad. This is certainly quite easy for anyone to do. It's true, however, that winning ultimately depends on luck.

They say one man's poison is another man's treasure, if we apply the same concept here...we find that a game would be considered useless or foolish because of gambling on it, but trust me someone somewhere is being crowned as the King or Queen 👑 of that very game you see as useless or waste of time and money!

And btw it's easily to label some games brainless because one doesn't understand or have the know how or maybe one sacks at it and loses money to it, but that shouldn't warrant the bad mouthing..

You actually mean games that doesn't need strategy and mental exercise to execute results? If that's what you mean, then yes. Playing slot, Plinko, dice and non strategic based games are prone to cause mental dullness in any individual that constantly participate in this game and never try other strategic based games.

The brain needs it to be functional, troubleshooting to be able to expand, and these games do not give it such function, just making players been dummy hitting on the stake button without knowing what would happen next, just mere luck.

So dummy to me.

There is a huge chance that if you focus on playing these types of games, then your primary aim in gambling would be for profit. Implications? You can easily get addicted into this venture; you would also chase that feeling of high every win; and it would be difficult for you to stop.

Just to add to what you have mentioned, there is really no merit in playing slots given the risks associated with it. As we all know, this is the game that has the lowest chance of garnering you a win- it really implies that you are chasing for profit instead of entertainment.

Is the brain only used for gambling? No, right? 
As long as our brains are still used to think about various things, including many things outside of gambling, it's not a problem. Unless we're already predisposed to gambling and all we can think about is playing slots, that's when our brains become dull, and we can actually only think about slots, and again, slots, without considering all the risks, gameplay, strategies, bankroll management, and even the mechanics, or even the logic itself—it could even be said to be flawed.

But, again, that's if our brains are truly not used to think about anything else, only about luck-based games, like slots.

Let us put it this way, every game whether you don't need brain or not, is still using your brain cells to think the next step you need to do. So whether the game is easy or not, still, our minds are still working and trying to find ways how to get that profit. It will only make you dull if whole day everyday, you are not doing anything to improve yourself. And if that habit is consuming you too much where you can't work anymore to find more worthwhile activities and you are putting yourself in a rabbit hole, then, maybe, it is high time to alter your lifestyle. Do remember, no one will fund your gambling games other than yourself. So if you don't work for it, it means, you are relying from others and so you will incur debt.

Yes, our minds are working 24/7 even with those easy games. It works but it takes a rest because we don't see any visuals and we're not awake.

So, resting and sleeping could be the great thing about it when we feel and we're having dull moments.

It's also making us dull, when we're on the point of being desperate and we still gamble despite it should be enough and must be called it a day.

Some might be winning big but it's luck and there are more losers than winners (this is assumed, but I am confident on this assumption).

The word might have been bit offensive, but I deffo didn't mean it that way, may be I should have went with, "games that don't challenge the brain".

Life is what you make of it, so in some cases it is fine to relax and have some fun.

The key is to have a balanced life in which you also stimulate your brain, and do other activities.

If you only do one thing, then that's a bit of a waste, independent if it uses your brain or not.
