How To Play 90-Ball Bingo

Overview: How To Play 90-Ball Bingo
90-ball bingo is the typical type of bingo played in the UK. The Bingo 90 game’s bingo cards at King Jackpot have random numbers that range from one to 90. As soon as the bingo game starts, the King Jackpot computer will call out (at random) all 90 Bingo balls from a pool of 90 balls.

You’ll see the numbers get marked off on your bingo card when the numbers are automatically called during the game. If your bingo card has the number that is called, then that number is marked off. At King Jackpot, if the pattern on your bingo ticket matches the predetermined winning pattern in 90-ball bingo, you will hit BINGO and be eligible to win a prize amount.

The 1st place winner is the player that correctly marks off any horizontal line, 2nd place goes to the player that correctly marks off any 2 horizontal lines, and the “Full House” winner goes to the player that covers all 3 lines on their ticket.

TIP: Best Time to
If you’re wondering what days and hours specifically are the best times to play bingo on the Internet, continue reading…

As far as AM or PM is concerned, playing King Jackpot’s Internet bingo games at daybreak, afternoon, sundown, or night, makes precisely no difference whatsoever. Yet, some players at King Jackpot have said that the best days to bet online are during the middle of the week, on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and not at all on Mondays. Regarding weekends, many remain totally divided down the middle.

Even though there is not any concrete proof to back up these claims (on when is the best time to play online bingo), Internet bingo games providers such as King Jackpot assure its players that playing bingo on the Internet at any time, on any day, gives equal odds at winning bingo.

Daubing (or Autodaubing) Your Numbers
King Jackpot’s bingo rooms allow you to decide whether you want to have the King Jackpot computer automatically daub your cards for you or daub your bingo card manually yourself (by mouse-click). Letting the system for you will make sure you don’t miss a number.

You can choose any of the bingo cards you purchased at King Jackpot to play automatically on the “Buy Cards” popup screen under the “AutoPlay” tab. Just hit the “Turn On” button and then checkmark the cards you’d like to have auto-played. Also, you can turn off auto-daubing at any time by removing the checkmark beside the card you chose to autoplay or by clicking the “Turn Off” button.
