An abundance has been talked in the press just a while ago about the bingo industry singing the blues as a result of the smoking ban in England. Conditions have become so awful that in Scotland the Bingo industry has requested massive aid to assist in keeping the industry afloat. However does the internet variation of this quintessential game present a lifeline, or will it not compare to its bricks and mortar relative?

Bingo is an familiar game historically enjoyed by the "blue rinse" generation. Although the game recently had experienced a recent return in popularity with younger people deciding to go to the bingo parlors instead of the discos on a Saturday night. This is all about to be reversed with the enforcement of the anti smoking law throughout Britain.

No longer will gamblers be able to smoke while marking off their numbers. From the summer of ‘07 all public locations will no longer be permitted to allow smoking in their buildings and this includes Bingo parlors, which are possibly the most popular areas where folks enjoy smoking.

The results of the smoking ban can already be looked at in Scotland where cigarettes are already forbidden in the bingo parlors. Profits have plunged and the industry is absolutely fighting for its life. But where have the players gone? Surely they haven’t abandoned this familiar game?

The answer is on the net. Gamblers realise that they can play bingo using their computer at the same time enjoying a cocktail and cig and still enjoy big cash rewards. This is a recent development and has happened bordering on perfect with the anti cigarette law.

Of course gambling on on the net is unlikely to replace the communal part of heading over to the bingo parlour, but for a group of players the governing edicts have left a number of bingo enthusiasts with little alternative.
