Basic Format of Bingo

Every player should have a unique card. Player can buy as many bingo cards he can play. The player can also participate in any bingo patters. To increase your chances of playing, usually players have several cards, since you are already there why not maximize the time and chances by having as many cards.

You can see that each bingo card is marked with a grid that divides it into blocks of number combinations. At the centre is a free space – without any number just a blank space or any words/pictures they like to put. The numbers in the centre of the grid correspond to the letters ‘B’, ‘I’, ‘N’, ‘G’ and ‘O’ at the top of the card.

Before the game starts, a bingo pattern is announced. This is the pattern you need to form by covering called numbers on your card. Random numbers are drawn and called. Whoever forms the pattern first should shout Bingo!

Bingo is a game of chance, so everyone who plays has an equal chance of winning. In playing the game, it is important to be attentive and alert because in all world bingo games, you won’t get a prize if you’re late in calling out “bingo!” If you do shout after the next number has already been called, it’s already too late.


Winning UK Bingo patterns differ from game to game. We have the popular black-out or full house where you all numbers in your card should be marked. Other common combinations are lines, two lines or diagonal.
