Oklahoma has for a long time been synonymous with Bingo. This is because the Native tribes of Oklahoma have run Bingo sessions for ages. Patrons from each of the surrounding states pile in cars and travel into Oklahoma to play Bingo over the weekends.

The 1988 (IGRA) Indian Gaming Regulatory Act followed a landmark decision by The U.S. Supreme Court the year prior. Since that instance, twenty three of the thirty nine Amerindian bands of Oklahoma have established bingo halls. The Chickasaw were the 1st Oklahoma Native tribes to take advantage of the betting laws, and at this time run 10 gambling dens of their very own. Bingo was the game on which these gambling halls were built on. computerized games like slots were not allowed, because they are thought to contribute to gambling addiction at a higher rate than bingo.

In the past few years, Oklahoma law has altered to allow for big Indian betting casinos. You’ll now discover Indian gambling halls with slot machine games, video poker and 21 tables. Craps and roulette are still not approved in the American Indian gambling dens yet, however that is only a waiting game. No one can say with whether having other games in the bingo parlors will do for the appeal of bingo.
