Although classic bingo dates back to Italy of the 16th century, 90 ball bingo put the game on the map after being devised in the UK in the 1920s. As a result, bingo halls sprung up all over the country and became an institution within the national culture. However, online bingo is now the more dominant version, having replaced the majority of bingo halls.

Bingo Cards

A traditional bingo card in 90 ball will have six tickets that can be played. Each of those tickets will comprise 15 numbers, of which five are displayed on each of the three rows. The ticket will also have spaces to ensure that the tickets don’t look too congested. However, this is less of a concern when playing online, as the numbers are automatically crossed off.

Line Wins

After paying to play the round, players will wait while the bingo machine begins to draw numbers at random from a group of 90 balls. When the game begins, the initial aim will be for the players to be the first to complete one line of numbers. In 90 ball bingo, this early victory can be known as a one-line win.

Full House

As the game advances, the players’ eyes will next be cast on the prizes for matching two lines of numbers. After that, the game will be concluded when the first player matches all of the numbers on their bingo ticket.

Others Ways to Win

In 90 ball, there can be other versions with different rules determining when players can win. In one example, there is a variant where matching four corners is the aim. And this can be achieved by matching the top left, bottom left, top right, and bottom right numbers on the bingo ticket. There can also be 90 ball games that incorporate progressive jackpots at online bingo sites.
