Much has been talked in the papers recently about the bingo industry being hit as a result of the anti smoking law in the United Kingdom. Things have grown so awful that in Scotland the Bingo industry has called for massive aid to assist in keeping the businesses afloat. However does the web variation of this traditional game provide a lifeline, or might it not compare to its bricks and mortar equivalent?

Bingo has been an familiar game usually played by the "blue haired" generation. For all that the game of late had witnessed a recent comeback in appeal with younger members of society opting to visit the bingo parlours rather than the discos on a weekend. All this is about to be destroyed with the enforcement of the cigarette ban throughout Britain.

No more will enthusiasts be able to smoke at the same time dabbing numbers. Beginning in the summer of 2007 all public areas will no longer be allowed to permit smoking in their buildings and this includes Bingo parlors, which are possibly the most common areas where many people enjoy smoking.

The outcome of the anti cigarette law can already be looked at in Scotland where smoking is already not permitted in the bingo parlors. Profits have plummeted and the industry is beyond a doubt fighting for its life. But where have the players gone? Obviously they have not cast aside this established game?

The answer is on the net. People are now realizing that they can gamble on bingo from their computer while enjoying a beverage and fag and in the end, have a chance at huge jackpots. This is a recent development and has timed itself bordering on perfect with the anti smoking law.

Of course gambling on online can never replace the collective aspect of heading down to the bingo parlour, but for a demographic of people the rules have left a number of bingo enthusiasts with no choice.
