The Future Looks Bleak Bingo Halls
During the last few years in the UK we have seen hundreds of bingo halls close their doors for the final time. Hundreds have already closed during the last few years and many more closers are predicted during the next few years. Some blame the smoking ban but it seems the real reason is the rapid rise of online bingo. It is a well known fact that players can play bingo more cheaply online with greater prize pools compared to playing live where extra costs such as travel and beverages add to the cost.
Online bingo is the fastest growing form of online gambling in the UK. It comes as no surprise that one of the new brands to show sustained grown is Virgin Gaming. Both Virgin Bingo and Virgin Casino have had solid growth over the last 2 years. Virgin gaming looks to have a great future in the years ahead.
The TV show, Deal or no Deal (in the UK hosted by Noel Edmonds) has successfully migrated to the internet. You can now play deal or no deal online on many sites for fun or even for real money. This follows the trend of other game shows that have also migrated to the internet.
