Oklahoma has long been interrelated with Bingo. This is owing to the fact that the Native tribes of Oklahoma have provided Bingo sessions for ages. Guests from many of the nearby states pile in vans and head over to Oklahoma to play Bingo on the weekends.

The 1988 Indian Gaming Regulatory Act followed a landmark decision by The U.S. Supreme Court the year before. Since that instance, 23 of the 39 Indian bands located in Oklahoma have opened gambling halls. The Chickasaw were the 1st Oklahoma Native band to take advantage of the gambling laws, and at this time control ten gambling halls of their own. Bingo is the game on which the above-mentioned casinos were built on. computerized games like slot machine games were not permitted, owing to the fact that they are believed to contribute to gambling problems at a higher rate than bingo.

In recent years, Oklahoma governing edicts have changed to allow for massive Native gambling casinos. You’ll now find Amerindian gambling halls with one armed bandits, video poker and twenty-one tables. Craps and roulette are still not legal in the Amerindian gambling dens yet, but that is just a waiting game. Nobody can say whether having different gambling hall games in the bingo parlors will do for the popularity of bingo.
