Play Bingo Online
Bingo is a game that is elegant in its simplicity -- and it's even easier online. The objective of any style of bingo is to complete the game pattern on your bingo card before any other player. If you do, you have a "bingo" and win the prize. Easy! When playing bingo online, your bingo cards are randomly selected for you. Most online games give you 3 or 4 cards. Other games let you take more. Every online bingo game has a caller or a display board for the bingo numbers. The game pattern is also displayed. It's important to pay attention to the pattern. You only need the numbers that form the pattern to win the game. Some patterns are much easier than others to complete. The most basic patterns are straight lines in a horizontal, vertical or diagonal direction. Another simple and popular game is the "blackout" or "coverall" where you have to cover the whole card. The numbers are announced quickly, usually 10 seconds apart, so you must pay careful attention to the numbers that are called and mark them quickly and accurately on your cards. Some games automatically mark the numbers on your card for you, but that takes much of the fun out of the game. The play continues until one or more players claim bingo. Then the game stops immediately and the numbers are verified. If there's a winner announced, the prize is awarded. If there is more than one winner, they split the prize. Next the players get new cards and a new pattern is displayed. And a new bingo game begins!

The game of bingo originated in Italy in the 16th Century. The game was derived from the Italian lottery known as Lo Giuoco del Lotto d’Italia. In 1530 during the unification of Italy, the Italian National Lottery Lo Giuoco del Lotto was started and has ben operating to this very day. Today the lottery is an indispensable part of the Italian governments’ budget, contributing excesses of at least 75 million dollars a year.
Soon the game became popular in France. In 1778 the French had their own version of the lottery called Le Lotto. This led to the development of the classic game of Lotto. The game consisted of cards which was divided into three horizontal and approximately nine vertical rows. The horizontal rows had five numbered squares and four blank squares which was randomly arranged. The vertical rows had numbers 1 to 90 grouped on separate rows of the card. The cards were all unique. The game also consisted of chips numbered from 1 to 90. Each player received a single card, the caller would draw a number and call it out aloud. The players would then proceed to covering the numbers if it appeared on their card. A player needed to be the first to cover a horizontal row in order to be declared the winner.
