Oklahoma has long been interrelated with Bingo. That’s because the Native bands of Oklahoma have run Bingo sessions for decades. Guests from all of the surrounding states load up in vans and travel to Oklahoma to play Bingo on the weekends.

The 1988 IGRA became law after a landmark decree by The U.S. Supreme Court just the year prior. From that time, twenty three of the thirty nine Amerindian bands located in Oklahoma have opened gaming halls. The Chickasaw were the 1st Oklahoma Amerindian band to take advantage of the betting rules, and at this time control 10 casinos of their own. Bingo was the game on which these gambling dens were built on. Electronic games like slot machine games weren’t permitted, due to the fact that they are believed to lead to gambling addiction more than bingo.

In the past few years, Oklahoma rules have changed to permit gigantic Indian betting gambling dens. You’ll now discover Indian gambling halls with slots, video poker and chemin de fer tables. Craps and roulette are not yet approved in the American Indian gambling dens yet, however this is just a matter of time. No one can say whether having different games in the bingo houses will do for the appeal of bingo.
