How To Play Bingo?

Bingo is entirely a game of chance and hardly requires strategizing on the part of the players. In order to play, you will need to buy Bingo tickets or printed Bingo cards that have numbered squares. As a game commences, a caller will start calling out random numbers picked out by a machine. As a player, you will be required to look for and mark squares that contain matching number(s) to those being called out. A game proceeds thus and you win only if you are able to successfully finish/mark off a definite pattern and call out ‘Bingo’ before anybody else does.

Some basic Bingo patterns that players are required to mark completely are a single row (either horizontally or vertically or diagonally), double lines, full house, center cross, inner square, four corners, etc. and since Bingo games are usually played in rounds, missing a single chance does not mean that you miss everything.

Bingo Versions

Awareness of the Bingo patterns will certainly help; however, it is your thorough comprehension of the two Bingo versions that determine your success in a Bingo game no matter which part of the world you are in. While in America, it is the 75 ball bingo game which is more popular, Australians and Europeans vote for the 90 ball game.

The 75 ball Bingo game makes use of 75 balls and 75 different numbers are called out in the course of a game. The Bingo card has 25 spaces/squares in 5 x 5 grids, with each square (except the central one) featuring random numbers in the range of 1 and 75. Each single column of the card is represented by a letter making up the word ‘Bingo’ (starting from left to right). The numbers appearing in the columns are proportional to their positions; thus, the first column has 5 arbitrary numbers ranging between 1 and 15, the second column has 5 random numbers in the range of 16 and 30 and so on till 75.

The 90 Ball Bingo Game, as the name suggests, is played with 90 balls and an equal number of numbers are called out during a game. The main difference, however, lies in the card arrangement – unlike the American version, the 90 ball game card has three rows and nine columns. In total, 15 numbers (in the range of 1 and 90) appear on a card. Five squares in each row contain numbers and the remaining four are blank. The columns contain either one or two or three numbers (which are again relative to their positioning) – the first column can contain numbers between 1 and 9, the second column anything between 10 and 19 and this continues till 90 in the last column.

Online Bingo
