Some Different Types Of Online Bingo To Play

Out of all the popular online games being played today, online bingo may be the most interesting as well as the easiest to play. It suits beginners and pros equally well. When you play online bingo, you have to take quick decisions and instant moves, and this adds to the excitement of the game. Different types of online bingo games are played, and a person new to the scene may well feel confused by them. Below, we have given descriptions of different types of online bingo games, along with some tips.

The easiest bingo variant is Cover All. In this type of online bingo game all that is required of you to win is to be the first player to get all the numbers marked in your card. For a Cover All bingo game, purchasing one ticket is as good as purchasing two or more, since there is no way you can determine which numbers will get called out first.

Compared to the other types of online bingo games, the jackpot is usually higher in a Cover All game. But the catch here is that all numbers in your card have to get marked before the forty first number is drawn; the jackpot prize is greatly reduced after this.

Another version of online bingo is Regular, which you can win in three ways, which is to have your numbers marked in a horizontal, a vertical or in a diagonal row. Numbers marked in any of these three directions will win you the jackpot prize. In the regular version, the cash prize is normally smaller because of the multiple ways you can win it.

If you play Four Corners, opt for purchasing a lot more online bingo tickets, because only four numbers, 01, 05, B1 and B5 will count, and nothing else will matter.

There is the Diamond wining format used in two types of online bingo; one uses a ‘clearer’ diamond, meaning the 12, 14, B3, N1, N5 and 03 numbers while the other uses just four numbers, mainly those in N1, N5, B3 and 03.

In Winner’s Circle, all numbers in B & O and the first as well as last numbers in I, N, G rows are the ones that matter in this bingo version.

In the cross format, all numbers in row N and those appearing in 13, B3, G3 and 03 are the ones that matter. You will notice that these numbers make up a cross.

How To Play Poker – Cards and Their Rankings.

In order to explain how to play Poker – I am going to start out explaining the cards and the Card Rankings then move on to the various types of Games and what the differences are between them. The aim of the game in Poker – is to beat your opponents hands by holding a better ranked hand than they do. The cards rank from Two to Ace (although bear in mind that the Ace is allowed as both a Low and a High Card)

Single Card – This is the worst hand available and is where there is no common ground between any of the cards in your possession – They are not all the same color, not all the same suit and do not have any pairs of the same Marked Number.

A Pair – This is when two of the cards are the same Face Value – with a Pair of 2’s being considerably worse than a pair of Ace’s.

Two Pair – when you have two sets of pairs available to you – although beating a Pair – this is still not a strong hand and unless you have High Cards (Jack through Ace) you should be wary about betting highly.

Three of a Kind – This is when three of the cards available to you are all linked by the same Marked Number. E.g. Three 6’s or Three 10’s.

A Straight – This is when the cards get better and the Term stands for five sequential cards e.g. 4,5,6,7,8 but not all belonging to one suit. The best available Straight is the 10,J,Q,K,A.

A Flush – This is when all the cards are different Marked Numbers but all belong to the same suit – e.g. They are all Diamonds or are all Spades e.t.c. This is generally considered a strong hand and betting heavily on this would be expected. Be aware that the Highest Card of the Flush is the most important card as a 2,3,7,9,Ace would beat a 7,9,10,Q,K!

A Full House – This is a very good hand and is defined as a Pair and a Three of a Kind combined. That means in the five cards used – there are 2 matching numbers and 3 other matching numbers. Again the Three Card medley out-values the Pair should two players have the same hands.

Four of a Kind – A rare delight – when you have drawn this you are expected to bet heavily. This means that four of your cards all belong to the same Marked Number e.g. Four 8’s or Four Queen’s. The fifth card is only important should two players have the same identical cards – an unlikely event with this hand.

A Straight Flush – This is very rare and should be used to full effect when betting. This term applies to a hand of 5 cards – all consecutive numbers and all with the same suit. For example – 3,4,5,6,7 of Hearts would be termed as this and any player lucky enough to get this should bet heavily with it.

The Royal Flush – I have titled this appropriately as it is the hardest hand to get in the Game and should anyone be lucky to draw this at odds of 1 in 649,740 – you should be looking to bring every player into the game and bet all the chips available to you. This means that you have got the 10,J,Q,K,A of the same suit.
