An abundance has been stated in the press recently concerning the bingo industry singing the blues as a consequence of the anti cigarette law in the UK. Things have become so bad that in Scotland the Bingo industry has requested massive aid to assist in keeping the businesses from going bankrupt. But will the internet adaptation of this quintessential game offer a lifeline, or will it never compare to its bricks and mortar kin?

Bingo has been an age old game generally enjoyed by the "blue haired" generation. In any case the game lately had witnessed a recent resurgence in appeal with younger members of society deciding to visit the bingo parlors rather than the bars on a weekend. This is all about to change with the introduction of the cigarette ban across UK.

Players will no longer be allowed to smoke whilst marking off their numbers. Starting in the summer of 2007 every public area will not be allowed to permit cigarettes in their locations and this includes Bingo parlours, one of the most popular areas where people like to smoke.

The results of the cigarette ban can already be seen in Scotland where cigarettes are already not permitted in the bingo parlors. Players have plunged and the business is beyond a doubt struggling for its life. But where have the players gone? Surely they have not cast aside this ancient game?

The answer is online. People realize that they can wager on bingo from their computer whilst enjoying a beverage and smoke and in the end, have a chance at big jackpots. This is a recent anomaly and has timed itself bordering on perfect with the anti cigarette law.

Of course playing online can never replace the social aspect of going down to the bingo parlour, but for a demographic of men and women the law has left a number of bingo enthusiasts with little choice.
