Penny Bingo Games

Alongside free bingo games, penny bingo games are becoming very popular among online bingo UK fans, and almost every bingo site in town has at least one of these ’so cheap it’s almost free bingo games’ bubbling away on the pot.
There’s something delightful about playing a game of online bingo and spending a penny - ahem, not that kind of penny, you know what I mean!
But seriously, how much better can it get than penny bingo? You can easily afford penny bingo games, they don’t bring a huge deficit to your online bingo budget, and you can play bingo online merrily for hours on end at a time.
Of course penny bingo games don’t tend to offer mega jackpots, however there’s one particular game coming up this Friday I believe at Wink Bingo, where tickets cost just 1p a shot, and the penny bingo game jackpot is an incredible £2,000!
Work it out for yourselves, pay 1p for a bingo card to this game and you win £2,000 - that’s a return on your investment of 200,000%!!!!!
Of course most of the wise winkers will be buying more than 1 solo bingo ticket for this cool penny bingo game, but in the end it comes down to a combination of chance and lady luck and a whole lotta bingo balls!
So don’t miss the huge penny bingo game at Wink Bingo tomorrow, could make history as the best investment ever!

If you’re feeling the effects of the credit crunch with the rest of us, then free bingo games and penny bingo games are definitely the way forward for internet bingo sites in the UK. And I know that generally online bingo games have become incredibly cheap of late, with 5p and 10p tickets the norm, for some pretty hot cash prizes too, but it does all add up.

Scratchcard

Many online bingo sites offer a whole lot more than just bingo, giving bingo players a choice of extra instant games that can be played at the same time as playing bingo online.
Instant games include slots, casino games and also scratchcard games. These extra games are called side games or instant games, as they can be played quickly. Instant games were originally added as an extra option for bingo players while they wait for the next bingo game to start.
That's how I found my favourite type of instant game the virtual scratchcard - just like the normal scratchcards you buy on the highstreet, except it’s online. One of the very great advantages to playing online scratchcards is that the instant the jackpot is won, the jackpot is reset.
When you play a scratchcard on the highstreet, someone could have just won the jackpot in Scotland, and you’d be hoping for the prize but in reality your chances of scoring the big one would be zero.
Online scratchcards have become so popular with the help of online bingo sites, that websites such as Scratch2Cash offer an entire range of scratchcards - and a few slot games to boot, even some bingo themed scratchcard games too.
The Scratch2Cash collection of scratchcards is unique, in that these instant games are exceptionally designed and you’ll find many different ways to play the simple scratchcard but with maximum fun and maximum winnings too.
The chances of winning when you play the online scratchcards at Scratch2Cash are 1 in 3. The prizes span an incredible range, depending on how much you stake, you could win up to £200,000 on a single card!
The instant games at Scratch2Cash include multi-themed scratchcards, including bingo games and keno too, 3 and 5 reel slots, and casino table games. All in all a great selection of online scratchcards to get you scratching and winning!

Yesterday in a bingo hall

I went to a bingo hall yesterday which I don't do too often any more. I rather play bingo online, but that joke yesterday rememberd me my grandma. My grandma often took me to bingo halls.

It was great yesterday, but I think I stay at home today and maybe play on my favourite site Wink Bingo or maybe have a look at BingoStreet what new bingo promotions can be found on the online.

A joke for today

I was surfing on the web and I found this old joke... It brought up funny memmories when I went to play bingo with my grandma. She was a fine old lady but could forget about her good breeding in a second when she was playing bingo.

Q: How do you get a sweet, little old lady to say the F-word?
A: Get another little old lady to shout "BINGO!!!

For the memory of my grandma I don't play online bingo today, I will play real at the evening.

Bingo bonuses

Online bingo sites always offer bonuses, you would be a fool not to get the advantage of these. To find these offers you have to check many bingo sites, which takes time. There is a much more efficient way to hear about the latest online bingo bonuses: Sign up for a bingo newsletter!

I tryed different bingo newsletter services but I wasn't really satisfied with any of them. Finally I found Bingo Street Newsletter and I decided to stuck with it, they post the most useful informations about the online bingo world!

Online Bingo Strategy

The best strategy is being lucky like me :) But there is a strategy for those too, who didn't born to be a bingo winner:

I’ve got a few pointers for you to increase your chances of winning when you play bingo online. There are two main types of bingo games, in this article I’ll discuss the 75 ball bingo variety and how you can better your chances of hitting those cool bingo jackpots.

In 75 ball bingo, you have a chance of 1 in 75 of getting a ball when the game of bingo online starts. Let’s take a look at how the game of 75 ball bingo is played.

When you play bingo online of the 75 ball variety, your bingo cards or tickets have a random selection of 25 numbers. During the bingo game the numbers will be called out one by one, until a line, full house or pattern is won during play. In online bingo this means that you have several chances to win the jackpot before someone else does. Each time a bingo number is drawn it’s posted on the screen and you can either manually check your bingo cards or use the handy auto-daub feature that most bingo online websites offer.

So if the first number to be called is I 8, you can make the following deductions. You already know that in 75 ball bingo there are 7 balls that end in the number 8. If 8 is on your bingo card, then there are 6 bingo balls left that will end in 8. This means your chance of getting another 8 is lower than for other numbers. Also, because 8 is an even number, your chances are further reduced as the number of remaining even bingo balls has declined.

Online bingo strategy is a way of looking at the probabilities that one number will appear over another. The online bingo hopper you see on the computer screen is run by a Random Number Generator, which means that there isn’t a fixed pattern for the next bingo numbers to be called. So if you are serious about improving your winning odds when you play bingo online, you need to look at the bingo cards you select.

The odds of drawing 25 winning online bingo numbers from 75 bingo balls before anyone else are not that high. However if you pay attention when you select your cards, you can increase your winning chances.

So if one of your online bingo card choices shows the numbers 1 to 5 on the first row, in terms of probability you would do well to leave this card alone, however it’s still possible that these could very well be the winning bingo numbers. You’ll find that the best online bingo players select bingo cards with an even scattering of even and odd, high and low numbers. Some even suggest that as more bingo balls are drawn the numbers left in the bingo hopper will be closer to 38, but this is an unproved bit of bingo gossip.

Choose your bingo online cards wisely and you could find that you’re hitting the online bingo jackpots a lot more frequently!

Online Bingo

The online bingo world developed a lot since I started to play. It's not only about playing bingo, you can chat or play games just for fun .

I had my hard times as gambling can be a heavy addiction. But I am responsible now and I know my limits.

Bingo is sometimes not considered to be a responsible game. After all when you play bingo you are wagering money on a minimal chance to win. This doesn’t detract from the game however, for many of the players. Instead this seems to be part of the challenge. Unfortunately there are times where gambling online anywhere can become an addiction. Bingo is typically not seen as the topmost gambling addiction, but there are still some responsible bingo gaming tips we can offer to help you avoid this potential problem.
These tips are going to help you be more aware of the bingo games that you are playing, to help you wager better and more effectively. You should also keep in mind your overall monthly online bingo budget, this way you should find it easy to keep track of how much you spend, and to not to spend more than you can afford when you play bingo online.
The first and most important tip to play bingo responsibly, is to set your wagering limits. Before you start to play bingo, you should choose an amount that you are comfortable with to play with. Bingo games have varying ticket prices, you can find games that start from as little as 1p a ticket, or bigger jackpot bingo games with tickets priced around the £1 mark. If £1 is too much for you, then you should be checking out the smaller bingo game, so that you don’t go over your bingo budget.
Please also keep in mind that some bingo games might state that the ticket price is just £1, but there is a minimum purchase of 5 tickets, which means that you’re having to fork out £5 instead of just £1. So if you’re struggling with the rest of us under the state of the economy at the moment, it makes very good sense to stick to the lower priced bingo rooms and play bingo games that you can afford. This is a very responsible attitude, and if you stick to this basic rule you should not go astray.
Another important tip for helping you to play bingo responsibly, is to keep an eye on your account history. You’ll find that most, if not all, online bingo sites keep records of your bingo game play and also of your deposits and cashouts to and from your online bingo account. Keep tabs on how much you spend playing bingo online a week, a month, and then work out if the amount is easily affordable, or should you be cutting back slightly, or even a lot? It’s important to monitor your bingo account history regularly to keep track of your spending, and then you can easily adjust as you go along, to find a balance that suits you best.
The last tip on playing bingo online responsibly is simply to play bingo games as a hobby. Do not look upon your bingo games as a way to earn money. Don’t think that the massive bingo jackpots that you see advertised all over the bingo sites have your name on them. Bingo is a form of gambling, and though you can have some great runs of luck as with all gambling games, it will never become something that you can depend upon to pay your bills. Bingo players do get lucky all the time, however the chances of winning a big bingo jackpot are relatively small. So if you maintain the right attitude, and keep playing bingo online as a hobby and an enjoyable pasttime when you can relax and chat to your bingo buddies while you play bingo, this is the best attitude you can have, and will keep you out of trouble.

The History of Bingo

In the U.S., bingo was originally called "beano". It was a country fair game where a dealer would select numbered discs from a cigar box and players would mark their cards with beans. They yelled "beano" if they won.
The game's history can be traced back to 1530, to an Italian lottery called "Lo Giuoco del Lotto D'Italia," which is still played every Saturday in Italy. From Italy the game was introduced to France in the late 1770s, where it was called "Le Lotto", a game played among wealthy Frenchmen. The Germans also played a version of the game in the 1800s, but they used it as a child's game to help students learn math, spelling and history.
When the game reached North America in 1929, it became known as "beano". It was first played at a carnival near Atlanta, Georgia. New York toy salesman Edwin S. Lowe renamed it "bingo" after he overheard someone accidentally yell "bingo" instead of "beano". He hired a Columbia University math professor, Carl Leffler, to help him increase the number of combinations in bingo cards. By 1930, Leffler had invented 6,000 different bingo cards. [It is said that Leffler then went insane.]
A Catholic priest from Pennsylvania approached Lowe about using bingo as a means of raising church funds. When bingo started being played in churches it became increasingly popular. By 1934, an estimated 10,000 bingo games were played weekly, and today more than $90 million dollars are spent on bingo each week in North America alone.

Nowadays there are lots of great online bingo sites, Bingo Street is a great site for start. They've got detailed recommendations of the best bingo websites online, a fantastic guide to online bingo lingo, the latest news from the bingo online world and more.

My father likes to play on words.

So Bingo is my fate. I've always loved to play and since I've got internet at home Bingo became part of my everyday life.
