An abundance has been reported in the press recently about the bingo industry being hurt as a result of the anti cigarette law in Britain. Conditions have grown so bad that in Scotland the Bingo industry has asked for big tax breaks to assist in keeping the industry from going bankrupt. But will the web adaptation of this classic game offer a escape, or will it not compare to its land based opposite?

Bingo has been an age old game normally played by the "blue haired" generation. For all that the game recently had seen a recent comeback in acceptance with younger members of society opting to visit the bingo parlours instead of the clubs on a Friday night. This is all about to be destroyed with the enacting of the anti cigarette law around UK.

No more will players be permitted to smoke at the same time marking numbers. Starting in the summer of ‘07 all public places will no longer be permitted to allow smoking in their buildings and this includes Bingo parlors, which are possibly the most favorite locations where folks enjoy smoking.

The outcome of the cigarette ban can already be looked at in Scotland where cigarettes are already forbidden in the bingo parlors. Numbers have plummeted and the business is literally struggling for to stay alive. But where have all the players gone? Of course they have not given up on this familiar game?

The answer is on the net. People realize that they can participate in bingo in front of their computer whilst enjoying a beverage and cigarette and still enjoy massive jackpots. This is a recent phenomenon and has happened just about perfectly with the ban on cigarettes.

Of course betting on on the net can never replace the collective portion of going down to the bingo parlour, but for a demographic of people the rules have left a good many bingo players with no choice.
