Much has been talked in the press recently regarding the bingo industry singing the blues as a result of the smoking ban in the UK. Conditions have become so awful that in Scotland the Bingo industry has called for massive tax cuts to assist in keeping the industry from going bankrupt. But can the web variation of this quintessential game provide a reprieve, or will it in no way compare to its bricks and mortar relative?

Bingo has been an enduring game generally enjoyed by the "blue haired" generation. In any case the game of late had undergone a recent increase in popularity with younger men and women deciding to visit the bingo halls rather than the bars on a Friday night. All this is about to be reversed with the enacting of the anti cigarette law around United Kingdom.

No more will enthusiasts be allowed to smoke whilst marking numbers. Starting in the summer of 2007 all public locations will no longer be permitted to allow cigarettes in their venues and this includes Bingo halls, one of the most favorite locations where folks like to puff on cigarettes.

The effects of the cigarette ban can already be looked at in Scotland where smoking is already barred in the bingo parlors. Profits have dropped and the industry is literally struggling for to stay alive. But where have all the players gone? Certainly they have not abandoned this classic game?

The answer is online. Players know that they can bet on bingo in front of their computer while enjoying a drink and smoke and in the end, have a chance at big prizes. This is a recent anomaly and has happened bordering on perfect with the anti cigarette law.

Of course playing on the web is unlikely to replace the social part of going over to the bingo parlor, but for a group of people the law has left a good many bingo enthusiasts with little choice.
