Oklahoma has long been analogous with Bingo. That is due to the fact that the American Indian bands of Oklahoma have operated Bingo sessions for ages. Guests from each of the nearby states pile in autos and travel into Oklahoma to gamble on Bingo on the weekends.

The 1988 (IGRA) Indian Gaming Regulatory Act became law after a precedent setting decree by The U.S. Supreme Court just the year before. Since that time, 23 of the thirty nine Indian bands located in Oklahoma have introduced gaming halls. The Chickasaw were the initial Oklahoma American Indian band to take advantage of the betting rules, and at this time control ten gambling dens of their own. Bingo is the game on which these gambling dens were built on. automated games such as slot machines were not authorized, because they are thought to contribute to gambling dependency at a higher rate than bingo.

In recent years, Oklahoma law has changed to allow for gigantic Native wagering gambling dens. You will now see Native gambling dens with slots, video poker and blackjack tables. Craps and roulette are not legal in the Indian gambling halls as of yet, however this is just a waiting game. Nobody can say whether having other casino games in the bingo parlors will do for the popularity of bingo.
