Bingo Games

Bingo was commercialised in the UK in the mid 1960s, and 90 Ball Bingo soon became a traditionally played bingo game in the UK, Australia and a few Commonwealth nations.

A 90 Ball Bingo card comprises of 3 rows and 9 columns. An empty grid to be filled in by numbers is known as a ticket. The cards in 90 Ball Bingo are similar to those in 75 Ball Bingo. A row is made up of five numbers and four blank spaces. This game is usually played with a strip of 6 tickets, which contains all the ninety numbers. In this game, if one plays a full strip, every number from 1 to 90 gets covered.

One can buy a maximum of 48 tickets. 3 game patterns exist. Winning in any of these can get you a prize. The 3 patterns are – One Line, Two Lines and Full House. Numbers from 1 to 90 are called out on the call board randomly. The person who first crosses off one horizontal line, then the other, and then all the numbers on the ticket gets a prize for every pattern solved. Hence, the game becomes quite attractive, as one can win even while the game is partially over, and there can be more than one winner in one game.

The game play however varies from one online bingo site to another. Some offer large amounts in cash prizes if one gets a Full House by meeting the set stipulations.
