Much has been reported in the papers not long ago about the bingo industry being hit as a consequence of the anti cigarette law in Britain. Conditions have become so poor that in Scotland the Bingo industry has asked for huge tax cuts to assist in keeping the industry from going bankrupt. But can the net version of this classic game present a lifeline, or might it never compare to its bricks and mortar peer?

Bingo is an ancient game usually enjoyed by the "blue rinse" generation. However the game recently had seen a recent resurgence in popularity with younger members of society deciding to go to the bingo parlours in place of the bars on a weekend. This is all about to be destroyed with the legislating of the smoking ban across England and Wales.

No more will enthusiasts be permitted to smoke whilst marking off their numbers. Beginning in the summer of 2007 every public area will no longer be allowed to permit cigarettes in their locations and this includes Bingo halls, which are possibly the most favored areas where folks enjoy smoking.

The outcome of the cigarette ban can already be seen in Scotland where smoking is already banned in the bingo halls. Numbers have dropped and the business is literally fighting for its life. But where did all the players go? Surely they haven’t abandoned this ancient game?

The answer is on the net. People know that they can wager on bingo in front of their computer whilst enjoying a cocktail and smoke and in the end, have a chance at monstrous jackpots. This is a recent anomaly and has happened just about perfectly with the ban on smoking.

Of course wagering on on the internet is unlikely to replace the collective portion of going over to the bingo hall, but for a group of players the law has left a good many bingo players with no alternative.
