Some tips from the top

 Luck runs the game of bingo.  However, if you use the tips of successful players and begin to build your own playing experience, you will easily and quickly become the pro.

Top Pointers for Success

1)      Get to the bingo hall early.  That way you will have the opportunity to choose the seat that appeals to you.  Further, you will find smoking and non-smoking sections.  By arriving well in advance of scheduled play, you can sit in the area that adheres to your smoking preference.

2)      Pick the playing times that bring the fewest players.  Being one out of 20 will yield more wins than one out of 200.  Most gamers congregate at bingo halls on weekends.  So your best bet is to play evenings during the workweek:  Monday through Thursday.

3)      Choose the amount of cards that are best for you.  While an increased number of cards will result in higher odds of winning, if you choose too many cards you may become enveloped in confusion.  Make sure that you are able to keep track of the numbers on all of your cards, so that you can quickly find the numbers being called when they appear on your bingo cards.  If you miss your winning numbers when they are called, you will most certainly miss your wins.

4)      Some skilled bingo players believe that it is best to share with your neighbor.  This means that whenever those experienced players are at a bingo hall, they purchase a bingo card for a neighbor.  The idea is that neighbors will buy one last card for the giving player who runs out of money at the end of an evening.  For sure, many skilled bingo players do not adhere to this principle.

5)      Other players have found that when they win, if they toss a dollar to their neighbors then those neighbors reciprocate.  In addition, if the neighbor wins with your dollar, that neighbor may share the pot.  Again, this practice is not followed by all players.

6)      Courtesy is important to everyone.  That means no shouting out as to the numbers you need, and refrain from communicating your complaints.  You and everyone else are playing bingo for the sheer fun of the game!

Online Bingo at its Best

Winning tips for playing online bingo are similar to those of land-based bingo games.  Choose games with fewer players, use the right amount of bingo cards and concentrate.

If you are winning, consider stopping your play before your luck turns.  Similarly, if you are losing know when to call it a day before dropping more than you can afford to lose.

Keep in mind that the more you practice, the easier it will be for you to establish a flow and comfort with your games.  You might want to begin playing by joining bingo clubs and expanding into community bingo events.  Alternatively, you could begin your bingo adventure by making use of online opportunities to play free bingo games until you get the hang of it.

It’s important to check out the sites before you register to play.  Choose the sites that are recommended to you and those that have positive reviews.  Ensure to yourself that you are funding an account on a site that will honestly record your winnings.

In general, the costlier cards will yield larger jackpots.  Additionally, be on the lookout for bonus balls and bonus games.  If you find a bonus ball in your winning row, the result may be double the pot or a separate prize.  Bonus bingo games yield the excitement of maximizing your jackpot potential.

Bingo is the enjoyable night out or the online smile for the day!
