An abundance has been written in the papers recently about the bingo industry being hurt because of the smoking ban in the UK. Things have become so awful that in Scotland the Bingo industry has requested huge tax breaks to assist in keeping the businesses from going bankrupt. But does the web variation of this classic game provide a escape, or might it in no way compare to its land based peer?

Bingo is an established game normally enjoyed by the "blue haired" generation. Although the game of late had seen a recent resurgence in acceptance with younger men and women deciding to visit the bingo parlours rather than the discos on a Friday night. All this is about to be destroyed with the enforcement of the cigarette ban throughout Britain.

Players will no longer be allowed to smoke while marking off their numbers. Beginning in the summer of 2007 every public area will not be permitted to allow smoking in their venues and this includes Bingo parlors, one of the most common locations where players enjoy smoking.

The results of the anti smoking law can already be observed in Scotland where cigarettes are already forbidden in the bingo halls. Players have dropped and the business is beyond a doubt fighting for to stay alive. But where did all the players go? Surely they haven’t forgotten this ancient game?

The answer is on the net. People are now realizing that they can enjoy bingo using their computer whilst enjoying a beverage and smoke and still enjoy massive prizes. This is a recent phenomenon and has happened just about perfectly with the ban on smoking.

Of course playing on the internet will never replace the social aspect of heading over to the bingo parlour, but for a group of people the governing edicts have left a good many bingo players with no choice.
