It is unlawful to play bingo for more than a specified number of hands per night.

The Law

Maine takes its charitable gaming laws incredibly seriously to prevent illicit, unregulated gambling rings from operating under the guise of community fundraisers. The state strictly caps the number of bingo games a single venue can run in a session and limits the total prize payouts. If a fiery game of bingo gets too intense, the state will aggressively step in to cool the daubers down.
