An abundance has been talked in the papers just a while ago about the bingo industry being hit as a result of the cigarette ban in Britain. Conditions have become so poor that in Scotland the Bingo industry has requested huge tax breaks to help keep the businesses from going bankrupt. However can the net version of this classic game offer a reprieve, or will it not compare to its land based equivalent?

Bingo is an enduring game historically enjoyed by the "blue rinse" generation. However the game lately had seen a recent comeback in acceptance with younger members of society deciding to go to the bingo parlors rather than the discos on a Friday night. All this is about to be reversed with the legislating of the anti smoking law around England and Wales.

No more will enthusiasts be allowed to puff on cigarettes while marking off their numbers. Starting in the summer of ‘07 all public locations will not be allowed to permit smoking in their venues and this includes Bingo halls, one of the most favored places where many people like to smoke.

The outcome of the cigarette ban can already be felt in Scotland where smoking is already illegal in the bingo parlours. Numbers have plunged and the business is absolutely struggling for its life. But where did the players go? Of course they haven’t given up on this ancient game?

The answer is on the net. Players are now realizing that they can wager on bingo from their computer at the same time enjoying a beer and fag and still have a chance at big cash rewards. This is a recent anomaly and has happened almost perfectly with the anti cigarette law.

Of course betting on on the internet is unlikely to replace the communal portion of heading over to the bingo parlour, but for a group of men and women the law has left a good many bingo enthusiasts with little choice.
