Oklahoma has long been analogous with Bingo. This is because the Amerindian tribes of Oklahoma have run Bingo sessions for ages. Patrons from all of the neighboring states get in cars and travel into Oklahoma to play Bingo over the weekends.

The 1988 Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA) was introduced after a precedent setting decree by The U.S. Supreme Court just the prior year. Since that time, 23 of the 39 Indian bands of Oklahoma have established gaming halls. The Chickasaw were the 1st Oklahoma American Indian band to take advantage of the wagering laws, and today run ten gambling halls of their own. Bingo was the game on which the above-mentioned gambling dens were founded. automated games like slot machines weren't allowed, because they are believed to lead to gambling addiction at a higher rate than bingo.

In recent years, Oklahoma governing edicts has changed to allow for large American Indian wagering casinos. You will now discover American Indian gambling halls with one armed bandits, video poker and twenty-one tables. Craps and roulette are not allowed in the Native gambling dens as of yet, however this is only a waiting game. Nobody can say whether having other gambling hall games in the bingo houses will do for the draw of bingo.
