Much has been written in the papers recently regarding the bingo industry struggling as a result of the anti cigarette law in England. Things have become so poor that in Scotland the Bingo industry has asked for huge aid to help keep the businesses alive. However does the net adaptation of this traditional game offer a lifeline, or will it in no way compare to its bricks and mortar relative?

Bingo is an established game historically played by the "blue haired" generation. Although the game of late had undergone a recent comeback in popularity with younger men and women opting to visit the bingo halls instead of the bars on a Friday night. All this is about to get flipped on its head with the enforcement of the anti smoking law all over England and Wales.

Players will no longer be able to smoke at the same time marking off their numbers. From the summer of ‘07 every public location will not be permitted to allow smoking in their locations and this includes Bingo parlours, one of the most favored locations where people like to smoke.

The effects of the smoking ban can already be felt in Scotland where cigarettes are already prohibited in the bingo parlours. Players have plummeted and the industry is beyond a doubt struggling for to stay alive. But where have the players gone? Certainly they haven’t given up on this ancient game?

The answer is on the web. Gamblers realize that they can participate in bingo in front of their computer at the same time enjoying a cocktail and smoke and in the end, have a chance at huge prizes. This is a recent development and has happened bordering on perfect with the ban on smoking.

Of course playing on the web could never replace the collective part of heading over to the bingo hall, but for a demographic of players the law has left a good many bingo enthusiasts with little choice.
