Developed in the year 1995, Slingo was first played as a five reel slot machine. The game is a fusion between slot machines and Bingo. It also derives some features from the classic game show which was called “The Joker’s Wild’

The basic idea behind this game is that a player gets to spin twenty turns of a number. Five numbers appear as a consequence. If these are the same numbers that appear on the cards, the numbers can be marked off. Various other special items may appear apart from numbers. The Jokers are regarded as wild because they can be used to mark off any number on the column if the Jokers appear on it. If a Joker appears in the center column, it can act as a Super Joker and you are allowed to place it anywhere on the board. Another special item that may appear during the game is the devil. In case it appears in the place of any number, the player’s score gets halved. Otherwise, a cherub appears, it nullifies the effect of the Devil by shooting it (with an arrow). The other special items are Coins and Free spins. Coins grant automatic points to the players. In Slingo, the last four points are to be bought with points. If a player has collected free spins, he can use these instead of fees for the last spins.

Being very popular a large number of websites have this game to be played. These sites provide different versions of Slingo. Some of these are down loadable as well. Some online Slingo games are Slingo Classic, Mixed Matrix, and 5 Card Slingo etc. Names of some downloadable Slingo games are Slingo Deluxe, 5 Card Slingo Deluxe, Slingo Quest, Slingo Quest Hawaii, etc.

Slingo combines the thrills of slot machines and the fast paced fun of Bingo and thus it enjoys a huge popularity.

During the 1990s, online games started to move from a wide variety of LAN protocols. “Online gaming is a technology rather than a genre; a mechanism for connecting players together rather than a particular pattern of gameplay. Online games are played over some form of computer network now typically on the Internet. One advantage of online games is the ability to connect to multips, although single-player online games are quite common as well. In the past, people only knew two general kinds of games – indoor games and outdoor games. With the advent of computer and other electronics, the need for another type of gambling, something that is really different from what existed before became more prominent. Many manufacturers provide a different kind of gambling that will cater to all interests and preferences of different people. Because of their consistent efforts, it took no time to turn their dreams into reality and with it comes a new version of gambling. This new type can only be played with computers and television. Though this is the case, the popularity of games under this type soared high as they swept people of all ages. This is when another type of gambling comes into the picture – Online gambling!

* If they often gambled until their last coin was gone?
* If the thoughts of gambling caused them to lose sleep?
* If they have used their income or savings to gamble while letting bills go unpaid?
* If they made repeated, unsuccessful attempts to stop gambling?
* If they have broken the law or considered breaking the law to pay for their gambling?

* If ever have they felt depressed or suicidal because of their gambling losses?
* If they have been remorseful after gambling?

There are some self help processes by which a problem gambler may get off.

Keep a diary. If a person maintain diary especially in the beginning of recovery, that would be highly effective to unlock lots of information about their problem. It will highlight at what times they get the urges to gamble. Over time they will feel more and more empowered that they choose to write about their thoughts and feeling rather than gambling to escape them.

Read as much as you can. The more time they would spend reading how rotten problem gambling is, the more they would believe it. When they read and understand and their core beliefs towards gambling have changed then this will ultimately change their behavior.

Internet counseling. This one allows them to anonymously seek help with someone who is skilled in dealing with and advising problem gamblers.

Face to face counseling. This approach is that they will be placing themselves somewhere from where it is not so easy to walk away. So it has the benefit of making them address their problem for a specific period of time.
