Will the Cigarette Ban in the United Kingdom Drive Bingo Players On to the Web?

Much has been talked in the press just a while ago regarding the bingo industry struggling as a consequence of the cigarette ban in Britain. Things have grown so poor that in Scotland the Bingo industry has asked for big aid to help keep the businesses from going bankrupt. However can the web variation of this classic game present a escape, or might it not compare to its land based opposite?

Bingo is an established game historically enjoyed by the "blue haired" generation. For all that the game lately had seen a recent increase in appeal with younger men and women deciding to hit the bingo parlors in place of the clubs on a Saturday night. This is all about to be destroyed with the enacting of the anti smoking law throughout UK.

No longer will gamblers be able to smoke at the same time marking numbers. From the summer of 2007 every public place will not be permitted to allow smoking in their venues and this includes Bingo parlors, one of the most favorite places where people like to smoke.

The outcome of the cigarette ban can already be seen in Scotland where cigarettes are already prohibited in the bingo parlors. Players have plummeted and the industry is absolutely struggling for its life. But where have all the players gone? Obviously they have not given up on this age old game?

The answer is on the net. People are now realizing that they can bet on bingo from their computer whilst enjoying a beverage and cig and in the end, have a chance at huge jackpots. This is a recent development and has happened bordering on perfect with the ban on cigarettes.

Of course gambling on on the net is unlikely to replace the social aspect of heading over to the bingo hall, but for a group of players the governing edicts have left a number of bingo enthusiasts with little choice.
