The best bingo games

June 8, 2017 Posted by Jane Smith Editorial, Preview No Comments

As part of our continuing coverage of gambling technology, today we take a look at bingo, a game of luck with origins dating back to the 1500s.

Although it might not receive the same degree of media attention as other forms of gambling, such as betting on sports or playing online casino games like roulette or blackjack, bingo has long been a very popular activity for a lot of people – particularly women. Of course it has evolved considerably over the years, and, although some people still opt to play it at their local land-based bingo hall, more people are choosing to play the best bingo games online – at sites like Wink Bingo. This is down to both convenience and the high quality of the games that they have to offer. Wink Bingo provides a unique way to play bingo online through their innovative website and the quality of the gameplay on offer – it is a fun-filled experience that allows players to play at home or on the go.

As with most of the online bingo sites that have established themselves in this digital era, Wink Bingo has an impressive range of different variants of the game on offer. One of the most popular types is definitely 90 Ball Bingo, which is also arguably the most well-known bingo structure. The way to get started playing 90 Ball Bingo is to purchased numbered tickets with the bingo caller shouting out numbers at random during the game. If you have the number called out on your bingo card, you daub it, with a win being achieved if you cover a 1 line pattern and ‘bingo’ if all the numbers on the card are called. A 90 Ball Bingo card will have a 3 x 9 number chart, with 4 empty spaces and 5 numbers in each of the lines of 9. This is the bingo structure that most people think of when imagining the game and is a simple, exciting version of it that is ideal for getting started as a player. It is far from being the only popular type of bingo that 888 Bingo has to offer visitors though, as 75 Ball Bingo is another structure that is building up a following in this country. This is the predominant structure of the game in the USA and represents a variant on 90 Ball. Although the basic rules are the same as with 90 Ball, the card for 75 Ball Bingo has a 5 x 5 number chart, with a centre square reading ‘free’. This structure of the game also offers limitless winning patterns, unlike 90-Ball, which makes it very attractive to many players. 888 Bingo also offers High 5 Bingo, a structure that sees you win if you score a diagonal, horizontal or vertical line of 5 numbers. It is another hugely popular variant on the game that is well worth spending some of your time and money on playing at a site like 888 Bingo.

Bingo is now such a popular pastime that more than 100 million people around the world play it, with the rise of online bingo having contributed greatly to that huge number. Although some still like to make occasional visits to land-based halls, playing online lets you do so at any time of the day or night, from the comfort of your own living room, and the convenience and strong game choice make it very much the future of the game.
