If congress legalises online gaming and Bingo, does your Bingo room have any plans for an online Bingo website? Any legislation would have to be analysed before we moved forward in starting any online gaming.
Which do players prefer - paper cards or electronic screens?
“Potawatomi Bingo Casino bingo players prefer options. Many move back and forth from paper to machines for various reasons, whether it be speed, eyesight, experience or cost.” – Frank Fisher, Assistant Bingo Director.
Players who play electronic machines are required to purchase a minimum of two packets during the session, whereas paper players can opt to play just one packet. “The slight majority of players still play paper. I estimate about 60% play paper and 40% play machines.” – Melanie Martin, Bingo Director
Who is your main completion? Are there other Native American Bingo Rooms in the area?
There are many forms of entertainment in Milwaukee – and several other Tribal casinos in the state.
“Potawatomi Bingo Casino has been able to maintain our popularity with bingo guests who enjoy our pricing structures, game options and the variety of specials.” – Melanie Martin, Bingo Director
