Bingo Rules: Bingo is a favorite of everyone the world over because it is an easy-to-play game of chance whereby players use numbers drawn randomly which players must score off against those numbers that have been pre-printed on a 5×5 matrix. Each card bears 24 numbers randomly put together, ranging from one to 75. In the middle of the card is an empty space. Each card is different from any other and therefore, there could be tens of thousands of bingo cards that a player may use to play this game. Whether these matrices are printed on paper or are electronically created, they are called cards. You can find your place to play at jackpot city

There are many versions of this game such as U-Pick’Em bingo, Bonanza bingo, Table bingo, Electronic bingo, Quick Shot bingo, Death bingo and Horse racing bingo. Besides these, there are two main variations:

  • American Bingo: Here, players choose from 75 pre-set numbers.
  • UK Bingo: This card comprises numbers ranging between one and 90.

The rules of this game are the most important of the theory behind it and it is essential to learn them as they vary from casino to casino depending on the variation played. So, it’s best to familiarize yourself with the rules before venturing out to a casino to play bingo.

Objective of bingo

The objective of anyone playing bingo is to be the first to strike off all the numbers called out on his or her pre-set bingo card and call out BINGO to win the prize. Just as the numbers are printed randomly, so also the numbers are called out randomly.

How to play bingo

The game begins after all players have bought their tickets. The caller announces the pattern to be covered in the first round of the game i.e. whether a line, one vertical row, one horizontal row or a full house. He also mentions the prize money for each and that gets the adrenaline of all the players up.  He then selects numbers randomly and calls them out. Each player looks for that number on his or her card and, if found, strikes it off. When one or more winners call out BINGO, the winner is determined by checking that the pattern mentioned has been covered by them.
