How to Play Bingo Like a Pro

This article is to help the beginner learn how to play bingo at any bingo hall. Since bingo is more than just daubing numbers, it is looking for patterns.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• self
• daubers(can be purchased at bingo hall)
• money, of course
• pen or pencil

1. Buy your bingo cards. When doing so ask the salesperson how many a new person can do. Make sure to grab a program!

2. Look for someone with lots of daubers and trinkets lined up in front of them. Ask if you can sit across or near them. Try to sit where you can see the monitors if they are available.

3. Get your bingo sheets out and ask the pro by you what you should know. Most of these pros like to help newbies out as long as the games haven't started.

4. Review the program for the night and make sure you understand the patterns involved. There may be some that you can mark ahead of time on your papers.

5. When it starts listen carefully. If a monitor is used, mark the numbers as you see them, don't wait until they are called.

6. If you get the pattern, yell bingo after the caller yells the number, but before the next number is called. (This can vary slightly from hall to hall.)

Tips & Warnings

• Remember to look for the pro. They will be your best bingo friend.
• Keep quiet during games.

on 11/11/2009 I love playing bingo. It's also great that you can play it online if you don't want to go out and get to meet other players. This is what I have been up to at Bingoboat.com
