Oklahoma has long been synonymous with Bingo. This is due to the fact that the American Indian bands of Oklahoma have run Bingo sessions for decades. Clients from each of the surrounding states pile in autos and travel to Oklahoma to wager on Bingo over the weekends.

The 1988 (IGRA) Indian Gaming Regulatory Act followed a landmark decision by The U.S. Supreme Court just the prior year. Since that time, twenty three of the thirty nine Native tribes of Oklahoma have opened bingo halls. The Chickasaw were the 1st Oklahoma Amerindian band to take advantage of the gambling restrictions, and at this time operate ten gambling halls of their very own. Bingo is the game on which the above-mentioned casinos were founded. digital games such as slot machines were not allowed, due to the fact that they’re believed to lead to gambling dependency more than bingo.

In the past few years, Oklahoma rules have altered to allow for massive Amerindian wagering gambling halls. You’ll now find American Indian casinos with slot machines, video poker and blackjack tables. Craps and roulette are not legal in the American Indian gambling dens yet, but this is simply a matter of time. No one can say whether having other games in the bingo houses will do for the draw of bingo.
