Bingo has been a popular pastime for many over the years, so it was a natural progression when the game started to become available online. With literally hundreds of sites offering online bingo, it’s easy to find and even easier to play!
History of Bingo
The origins of bingo are believed to be in Italy in 1530, where a game called “Il Gioco del Lotto d'Italia" was released. By the late 1770s, the game crossed borders for the first time. It spread to France as “Le Lotto”, offering an alternative version made by a young Frenchman. Instead of bingo cards, he modified them into the standard three-rows, nine-column ones we see today in 90-ball bingo. In the 1800s, it spread to Germany and then in the UK.
How Does Bingo Work?
Playing bingo is very easy. You have to cross off the numbers you have on your cards when they are called out. You have to do that before anyone else. When they are called, you have to check if those on your ticket match with them. If there is a match, you have to cross it off. Then numbers continue to be called until someone has crossed off all the numbers they need to get the first prize, often by completing one line. There are usually three winners FH (full house), 1L (one line), 2L (two lines).
