I usually mute the sounds while playing the games because it gets pretty annoying for a long session when you just hearing the same sound over and over again. And it is true to an extent that sounds can manipulate the brain and can urge for more but it's more common at young age, like kids and adolescents not for an adult but to gamble legally, you need to be an adult of age over 18+. What I will say is about the animations that does the same or even more effectively than sound but when you mute the effect can be negligible with just the animation.
I also started turning off the sound because I just want the game to pay less attention to me and make more informed decisions. Of course, animation does this too, but I also understand that it is necessary to limit yourself in time so as not to cause addiction to the game. Sometimes it is generally useful to think about leaving our brain clearer, and it is better to think through many things in advance, and not just spontaneously enter the game. Although I understand that most players just want to enjoy the game, but thoughtful thoughts in advance can reduce losses even for a simple player.
