It can happen often that online bingo players have repeated wins during one session of play, as I’ve mentioned before, its the luck of the numbers draw that really determines the wins. Some players have a succession of lucky days, whilst others are not so lucky, then things seem to go vice versa.
An example of lucky runs could well be demonstrated with these 2players;
The player known as TheeLadyInRed has played our Keno games recently. Between the 1st of August and the 13th August she had 12 wins! On the 8th August she had 4 wins of $300, and on the 11th August she had 2 wins of $100, and 2 wins of $200, other wining days were single wins, of $150, $200 and $300. Come along and try your lucky numbers on the great game of Keno.
Another recent example was the player known as JOEYD, who was playing another extremely popular game of pull tabs. There are different themes of tabs to pull, and on 13th August, this player chose pull tabs race, and won $250. He then chose to play on pull tabs gold and on the same day, and the same playing session, he won $1,550!
Of course we see this trend a lot, and it sure gives us a great feeling too when our players win win win, whatever games they are playing, be it bingo, slots, keno or pull tabs. For me personaly, I like the e-mails I get when players have used auto-buy option, and gone out for the day, or if at night time, gone to bed, then when they log back in to check, they have had several wins, the excitement and joy in their emails written to tell us is such a wonderful feeling, even though we didn’t have any part in them winning, we provided the great games that gave them that chance to win.
Wishing all our players many lucky wins! If you haven’t tried our online bingo games and other online games yet, you can get your free bingo games download sign up for an account, and start playing and winning in minutes.
I thought this breaking bingo news was well worth a mention; It is believed that the biggest ever worldwide bingo jackpot has been won! The amount of £1.1 million was won at a local land based bingo hall in Merthyr Tydfil, Wales. The lucky winner has been named as Christine Bradfield, aged 53, who is married to Ray, and also a mother of two, and a grandmother of 3.
Her bingo win came to the total amount of £1,101,686.Christine is quoted as saying that she and her sister-in-law always share their bingo winnings, and so half of her big bingo jackpot will be given to her sister-in-law.Christine, who works 3 days a week as a garage forecourt shop assistant, said she will not be quitting her job because she would only end up spending the fortune on shopping every day.
However, her husband Ray, aged 54, is said to be considering whether or not he will remain in his job, saying that the win may change his life. “I’ve told my crane driving firm that I might give up work but I don’t know yet,” he said. “I’ve worked hard my entire life. It would be weird not working – I don’t know what I would do with myself.”
The National Bingo Game’s chief executive Paul Talboys is quoted as saying “What a wonderful night for bingo. We know it is the biggest bingo win ever in this country but believe it to be the biggest in the world. It is just the boost we needed in these difficult times.”
Everyone at Starlight Bingo congratulates Christine, WTG!

90 Ball Bingo is the bingo online bingo game traditionally played in the United Kingdom and Australia. The game is similar to North American-style 75 Ball Bingo, where players purchase cards/tickets, then mark the numbers that are called and hope to be the first player to correctly complete the winning pattern. Although the basic foundations of the two games are the same, there are many differences. In 90 Ball Bingo, cards have three rows and nine columns. Five squares in each row contain numbers ranging from 1 to 90, while the rest are blank.
90 Ball Bingo
Nowadays the American gambling industry is in turmoil. The authorities are really determined to ban online gambling in the U.S. None the less online bingo is now more popular than ever.

Bingo is such a universal and social form of online gambling that can be enjoyed by people with diverse cultures and backgrounds, is testament to the fact that online bingo will be around and enjoyed for many years to come.

Bingo games come in two forms. The 75-Ball Bingo is popular in North America, while 90-ball game is widely played in South America, Australia and Europe. The 75-Ball is the standard Bingo game you see with a 5×5 card, a 90-Ball Bingo plays with a 9×3 card. Both games are found to be lucrative when it comes to online Bingo.
The objective of a 75-Ball and a 90-Ball game is still to mark off numbers theat called and create a pattern. But with a 75 ball-game, patterns can come in more forms, like Xs and crosses. Moreover, both games can be played in a Speed Bingo mode, where numbers are called faster.
With a 90-Ball, cards have nine columns and three rows. For each line there are five numbers, making each card having 15 numbers. Column one contains numbers one to ten; the second column, eleven to twenty; and so on up to the last column where numbers range from 81 to 90.
The 90-Ball game is commonly played in three games or stages. In the first stage, players should accomplish one lines; in the second, two line; and third, a full house. In a one line game, a winner should’ve marked a row in his card (with 5 marked numbers). A two line winner should’ve marked a horizontal and a vertical line. Lastly, a full house requires that the winner cover all numbers in his cards. In all stages, the full house winner bags the largest prize.
The Online Bingo Networks
Often you would find bingo sites that have the same graphics, the same interactive menus and chat monitors or CMs. This is so because they are all registered in the same bingo network. Different sites are used only as doorways to one game, that offer a larger chat rooms and bigger prizes. This arrangement is called White Label Gaming. These sites use the same bingo software but have different styles to market themselves.
Online Bingo Demographics
It is estimated that approximately 3 million “traditional” bingo players now play bingo online. About 90% of them are below 50 years old and 85% of them are female.
United States and Japan have the most number of online bingo players, followed closely by the United Kingdom. However, UK is becoming the fastest market when it comes to online gaming. A bingo player in that country spends an average �120 per month. On the other hand, only a percent of traditional bingo players in the UK have made the transition online.

A single thing that the Web has seemed to have changed badly is the traditional connection between non-profit fundraising use of bingo and the world of online bingo. A new Internet activity aims to bridge the gap between these two ideas.
Bingo back then had a traditional function of being the means to raise sorely needed funds for many important causes and groups such as Churches, schools, non-profit organizations and other fundraising organizations.
But now, as the world became a fast-paced environment, more and more people are choosing to play online bingo instead of going to the traditional land-based bingo hall. In this new environment, Bingo is still a social game and forms new bonds between the players themselves but bingo’s purpose of being a tool for charity is sadly lost to this new concept.
However just recently, a number of Internet savvy people have decided that they would try to recreate the spirit of charitable gaming back in the game by forming Bingohelps.com. The concept of this new venture is to donate at least 10% percent of what the members pay to the chosen charity by the members themselves.
The whole project is realized by the affiliation concept with the leading online bingo sites on the web that pays a marketing fee to Bingohelps.com which then in turn makes the monetary donation to the chosen charitable institutions.
According to the one of the founders of the site Nick Roberts, there is a lot of cash that is being made out there and they see no reason at all why they should donate some of it to help out the community.
He added that they have selected a wide variety of charities as their beneficiaries. The most special thing about it is that their members themselves chose which causes are worthy enough to support. The staff at the online site have made it very easy for people to join them.
Anyone interested can just click on the webpage online to join and make donations as long as they play and an easy registration allows the members to choose their most favored charity and even receive notice on how much they have donated already.
Nick Roberts said that the endless possibilities that are available to people on the web today is very huge. But in the end, people still have to make a choice and this choice will have a great impact.
Their program will give people the chance to exercise this power, which is making contributions to what many believe matters most. If anyone is interested, they can log-in to bingohelps.com for further information.
Bingo is a game where the players have to match the numbers on their cards or tickets. The numbers are either picked electronically or manually. The first person who completes the numbers on their card is declared the winner.
There are two types of Bingo games; the 75 ball and the 90 ball Bingo. The 90 ball bingo is usually played in Europe, Australia, and Asia while the 75 ball is played in the US.
With both you have to buy tickets or cards, which have pre-selected numbers. As numbers are called by the computer you have to mark the numbers. If you make the called pattern of the game from the called numbers matching the numbers on your card you win the game. If more than one wins the game, the prize is shared among the winners.
75 numbers are called in a 75 ball bingo game. The card consists of 5 columns which spell out from the word Bingo. It also consists of 5 rows which make up 25 squares. The 25 boxes are full of numbers which are randomly selected from 1 to 75. Each card has a code to identify it.
The objective of the bingo game is to match the numbers called with the ones on your card or ticket to the pattern for the game. You have to shade or mark the called number on your card as they are called. There are more than 6,000 pattern combinations in a 75 ball bingo game which varies to a blackout pattern or a simple 4 corners of the card.
The player who completes the pattern for the game wins the prize. Each game has a number of balls to be called to get the jackpot price. If the player completes the pattern within the number of balls needed, the player wins the jackpot.
For a 90 ball Bingo game, the cards used are called tickets. Each ticket has nine columns and three rows. Six tickets are sold on one card. 90 numbers are distributed in six tickets for every card. From each row of nine squares only five have numbers from 1 to 90 while the other squares are left empty.
A 90 ball Bingo game has three chances of winning; complete the single, two, or three rows. Each of these patterns have separate prizes. Once a player completes the first row, the game continuous until someone wins the two and three rows. If the player who has completed the three rows within the number of balls for the jackpot, the player gets the jackpot prize.
90 ball Bingo is not letter specified compared to 75 ball Bingo. And it also has three winners for every game. You can choose to buy a card with six tickets or just a single ticket. Some experts believe that the future of online bingo is 90 ball because there are three winners in each game and the prize lasts longer which have more money to give for the final prize.
