EYES DOWN FOR UK BINGO WARS
06/06/2005Online Bingo is growing faster in the UK than anywhere else and the estimate is that in a year's time 250,000 people will be playing online bingo on a regular basis. Dylan Schlosberg, spokesperson for Think Bingo says:
"There are more Bingo players in this world than poker players. Unlike poker, everyone knows how to play bingo. In five years' time online bingo will as big, if not bigger than poker."
Unlike poker, Britain's online bingo fans play for low stakes - from just 10 pence to £1 a game - for smaller but more regular prizes. And while they are playing bingo, customers chat online and make friends, just as they would at a real bingo club. Romance even blossomed for one couple on ThinkBingo.com, who fell in love after becoming pals on the site.
As Schlosberg says:
"Online bingo is a club. It's real people communicating, being happy, getting upset. The members confide their problems and help each other with their difficulties. There's real camaraderie among players."
There you go - straight from the horse's mouth.
