Bingo in Canada Vs Bingo in the UK

Bingo halls in Canada are open to everyone, the halls do not approach the players as members but as customers, the one and only reason people go there are to gamble and make money! Players play massive numbers of cards simultaneously and they have developed sharp techniques to enable them to play on many cards simultaneously.

For a Protestant community having fun is a waste of time and is not something rewarding, the goal is to be working and Canadian players see playing Bingo as a job, a means of making money, which at the end of the day ruins the fun. If you walk into a Canadian Bingo hall you will see everyone so dedicated and focused to their cards and their play, nobody talks, nobody smiles and the final destination is money and only money.

There is two entirely different vibes in bingo halls in Canada and the UK. Bingo in the UK has more of a socializing and having fun character, all the attributes of the Clubs and the offerings they have aim to color the game with fun and making play enjoying.

The gambling characteristic is rather eliminated, by making these halls into clubs where membership is required to enter therefore achieving the belonging feeling. If you ask members why they attend their clubs, play bingo will not be the number one reason.
