Bingo is as popular online as it is offline. The basics of the game are simple: getting a card filled with numbers and scoring off the winning numbers as the Bingo system reveals them. Often the numbers are arranged conveniently (diagonally or as a cross) so that it is easier to fill the card. A computer function called 'auto daub' actually marks all winning numbers on a player's card, so there's no need to make them oneself. In 'blackout' or 'coverall' Bingo, the whole card is covered with numbers.
Playing Online Bingo:
1) As the Bingo system produces the winning numbers, they appear on the player's cards. The 'auto daub' facility allows for multi-card play.
2) Players can take greater control of their game by switching 'auto daub' off. However the winning numbers are registered, whether this feature is activated or not.
3) The first player to complete his or her Bingo card is the winner. If there are several Bingo winners at the same time, they share the prize.
Progressive Bingo Jackpots A Progressive Bingo Jackpot pools all unclaimed Bingo prizes into one large pot. Casinos can also run additional jackpots (maybe called Super Jackpots) to attract more players. A player who wins a Progressive when the Super Jackpot light is on will win twice the money or more.
