Bingo is a rather simple, but very entertaining game to play. Bingo is enjoying much popularity as an online game - we've therefore made a short introduction to online bingo. Each player starts out with a blank bingo card, or more if one desires so. Bingo resembles lottery in many ways. There is a caller, who announces randomly picked numbers from a set ranging from 75 to 90 different numbers. If you're lucky to have a certain number on your card that the caller has announced, then that number is marked for the rest of the game. If you're the first player with all the numbers on your card marked or has achieved a special patterns on the card (normally 5 numbers horizontally, vertically or diagonally - relative to the rules of the specific game), then you've won! The customs of the games encourages you to yell "bingo" to announce that you've won, and the collect the prize. The most popular version of bingo is played with a card that has 24 numbered squares and a "free" square - the free square is located in the center of the card. Each card has 5 rows and 5 columns. These columns are marked with the letters B-I-N-G-O from left to right. Each individual square in the "B" column contains 5 different numbers ranging from 16 to 30. The letters "N", "G", and ""O" contains the numbers ranging from 31 to 45, 46 to 60, and 61 to 75. Since Bingo is enjoying so much popularity world-wide, there is great variation in the prizes to win. The prizes range from toys, cars, electronics to millions of dollars in stone-cold cash.
