10 Top Tips To Increase Your Chances Of Winning Bingo

30 March 2010

Before we go any further, you need to understand that Bingo is not a game that really needs to always end with a big win. There is such a lot of fun to be had playing this game that winning becomes rather less important than you might think. Of course, as with every type of game all players should play with the aim to win the game. Here are some winning tips that would assist you in this endeavour:

1. Choose games which have a limited number of players. The more crowded the Bingo Hall the more competitive the game will be and the less chance there will be for you to win.
2. Gain as much experience as you can; join Bingo clubs, play tournaments and as many games as you can. While doing so, you should make it a point to interact with the other players, share your experience with others and gather tips that are given on different forums and the newsletters from these clubs.
3. Look out for the bingo bonus balls – these are the balls which have a different colour. If you were to get such a ball and its number is one the winning grouping - your winnings would double or you would receive special bonus points. These bonus balls can be counted on to add a little extra only when they figure in the winning combination.
4. Choose higher paying cards. Those games of Bingo, which offer cards above £0.25, will usually ensure higher winnings. Try to play games which have higher paid cards to get the chance of more winnings.
5. Check reviews. Always ensure that you play online BINGO on sites which have good reputation on both the games as well as payouts. There are some sites which operate fraudulent games and hence you could lose big while taking part in the games hosted by such sites.
6. Play a good game with few cards. Remember that if you want to play Bingo and enjoy it you need to be in control. In order to be in control you need to have just enough cards to keep track of all of them. Do not go berserk when you are offered to take as many cards as you want at low cost.
7. Play like a pro. If you are on a winning streak, quit while you are ahead of the game. You should also know when to take a break when you are on a losing streak. Ensure that you can handle different situations – when you are leading or at the back – and know when to walk away.
8. Be careful. Ensure that you dot out the right numbers as they are called out or showed on the screen. Do not hurry and do not do too many things at a time, as this would involve making mistakes and you might lose a good game because you did not pay it sufficient attention. If you win, ensure you double check a couple of times the correctness of the winning combination – lest you be disappointed later on. Alternatively leave auto-daub on where available.
9. Bonus Bingo. There are many genuine sites that offer bonuses on certain Bingo games. Bookmark a few excellent review pages and stay abreast of all of the latest sites being launched..
10. Flexi rules. Some Bingo sites allow you to draw more cards if you feel you need more. Your chances of winning would definitely increase with more cards. However, beware that too many cards could be very confusing and actually prevent you from winning.
