Bingo Lingo
Bingo, this of course is what you yell out if you’re in a bingo hall and you have just gotten a bingo! You get these by marking the numbers in a row on the bingo card. This is sometimes easy to do, if you get lucky and your numbers have been called out by the bingo caller. The bingo caller of course is the person who will pull the balls out of the cage and will yell out what number and letter the ball has on it.
A bingo card is the card you get to play a game of bingo, this is where you will mark the numbers that are called by the bingo caller, and hopefully you will receive the one’s that will make a row and a bingo! Bingo pattern, this is a bingo game in which you will need to get the bingo in a certain pattern, a good example is in an “A” or perhaps an “X”. You might have a white out, which is where every number on your card will need to be marked.
People use to use beans when bingo first came out to mark their cards, and then they would use pennies or these little markers that you could remove with a wand because they were magnetic. Now you have what is called a dauber. This dauber simply puts a mark of ink on the number and that will be you mark that the number has been called. Jackpot, this of course is what you are playing for in the game of bingo, the sizes of the jackpots differ depending on the game. At times this will be a small number like 10 pounds or $10, and other times you might be able to hit for $500 or 500 pounds.
Promotions are what some online bingo websites will run either weekly or monthly and these are bigger prizes that will be offered by the website. Sometimes a car such as a Fiat 500 will be offered, not only is it a new car, but it’s also a car that will help save you in gas money. Or a trip to the Caribbean which would be great for you and your mate. Plus there are other sites that have offered things like a brand new 250,000 pound house, and a trip to Disneyland Paris. All of these promotional prizes are awesome and would be great to hit a jackpot and win.
Progressive jackpots are those jackpots if they are not hit will continue to grow larger in prize amount. One site had a progressive jackpot that was worth well over 1 million pounds that would do so much for the person who was lucky enough to hit for it. Not all progressive jackpots are this large, but some do get fairly large so it’s always a great idea to at least try a few games to win one of those high priced jackpots, or even one of those awesome promotions. You never know when you’re going to get lucky and hit it big!
