How to Play BingoWebsite Gambling Article by - admin - Jun 5, 2006 Online bingo is simply bingo played on the Internet. Online bingo halls usually offer other online casino games as well as bingo. One notable fairly new feature of online bingo is the chat functionality. Successful online bingo sites foster a sense of community and interaction between their bingo players. Getting started Some bingo sites require players to download free software to play their games. Other operators use Java or Flash based games that allow you to play immediately. Free games are available, but before playing for real cash, bingo players are required to deposit money to their account. Most sites accept a standard range of e-wallet funding options, such as Neteller, Moneybookers, Citadel and FirePay Bingo websites often provide a number of incentives to deposit, including matching bonuses where the site will reward depositing players by matching a percentage of their deposit. (See our article on Signup bonuses) How to play bingo Playing bingo online, players can make use of optional features which make playing the game easier, such as auto-daub. Auto-daub automatically marks off the numbers on cards as they are called, so players don't have to. Most software providers support other gaming features as "Best Card Sorting" and "Best Card Highlighting" where players cards are sorted and highlighted by closest to bingo. Some of these features are designed to free players to enjoy the bingo chat rooms. The Chat rooms bring a different dimension to online gaming, where all the players of a game can meet and chat during games of bingo. 90 Ball bingo versus 75 Ball bingo games In 90-ball bingo, each card has three horizontal lines and nine columns. Each line contains five numbers, meaning each card has 15 numbers. The first column contains numbers from 1 -10, the second column contains numbers from 11-20, all the way through to the final column which contains numbers from 81-90. A game of 90 ball bingo will normally be played in three stages: one line, two lines and Full House. In a "one line" game players need to mark a complete horizontal line across one card (i.e. 5 numbers marked). The aim of a 'two lines' game is to complete any two marked lines horizontally across one card (i.e. 10 numbers marked). Finally a "Full House" means all the numbers marked off on one card (all 15 numbers), as in a regular coverall game. The prize split differs for each stage of the game. The Full House is always the largest prize in any one game. The desired pattern which players aim to achieve in 75 ball can vary dramatically, from a simple single line to more complicated themed patterns. The aim of the game, however, is always the same: to mark off the numbers to achieve the desired pattern. Speed Bingo is a variation played exactly the same, but numbers are simply called much quicker.
