Joanna Richardson proof an ordinary person can fight against a problem that they face. She showed how to make the moves that can actually help the sufferer. She wanted to get right to play bingo like other people without the possibility of being cheated. She was actually born blind. That’s why; she took the issue to the New York state ‘Racing and Wagering Board’ (RWB). Richardson’s goal was to get some audible electronic bingo gambling Cards’ on hand; so that as soon as she won the game – the card can alert her of the win.
The issue was begun with a lot of e-mails and letters. However, her battle ended with the historical-winning for the rights of every blind bingo player. Commentating on the new audible cards Richardson said “You have the control over the majority of what’s going on now.” She added “You don’t feel like you’re throwing your money away. You know when you’re waiting and you know when you won. You can’t be cheated.”
After getting all of the letters and e-mails, last week the RWB decided Richardson had some legal point. So, the authority changed the rules. Now bingo halls could have electronic bingo cards that would beep when any player wins. On the other hand, the fear for the RWB was that the sounds could generate some casino-like atmosphere. The Board did not feel like that the bingo halls turn into casinos. However, after hearing to J. Richardson’s gripes, the Board changed their minds.
