Bingo Trumps online poker!

Bingo gamers everywhere will be saying I told you so – but the latest google statistics have just revealed that for the first time ever, online bingo is more popular than the mighty game of online poker!

The news from google's search ranking follows the game winning numerous polls for being the most popular games available on the internet. The increased popularity of web bingo is thought to be the result of increased TV advertising and the credit crunch – meaning more people are watching TV rather than going out, and bingo offers a low cost leisure activity.

One advantage bingo has over poker is the fact that bingo TV ads are frequently featured during prime time TV – in contrast to poker that is strictly featured after the water shed. Naturally, because bingo appeals to non-skilled gamers and is considered a very soft form of gambling, means that it also has the advantage of being able to entice a much wider audience than the tighter niche of poker gaming.

What's more, many of the most deluxe online bingo parlours even offer mini-casinos with the chance to play poker if you so wish. Of course – everyone knows that web bingo is the number one though!
