Bingo is a great game to play for people of all ages as it is simple to learn, fun to execute and provides players with the much needed relaxation. Playing bingo is also a great social exercise as you get to meet and interact with people from all walks of life, and form new and interesting bonds. Along with these obvious benefits of playing bingo, studies have revealed that bingo has significant health benefits as well. People who play bingo regularly have been found to possess sound mental health and an active brain, even in an advanced age. These health benefits have thrown a new light on the positives of bingo and are sure to draw even greater crowds to bingo halls in future.

The Benefits of Bingo

Over the years, more and more people have been drawn to this great fun game regardless of their age. Since the 1990s younger people have started gaining interest in the game and have thronged Bingo halls for deriving great joy and satisfaction from the game. Recently conducted research has unearthed staggering facts like bingo players display better speed of reaction to stimulus, have markedly improved hand-eye coordination and are generally more brain active than those who do not play bingo. This remarkable discovery has been attributed to the following reasons -

  • During a game of bingo, numbers are called out rapidly and require flexibility of memory and instantaneous reaction to mark them down correctly. This is further helped by the fact that players usually increase the number of cards at hand as they get better at the game, thereby greatly increasing difficulty levels and allowing more and more intense exercises of the brain.
  • While a number of other games rely on premeditated responses to specific stimuli, bingo players have the requirement to think and process the information they get before making a move. There is less scope for the formation of patterns and more scope for actual thinking and processing.
  • Bingo is also a largely social phenomenon, with players interacting freely with each other. This social aspect contributes greatly towards keeping the mind fresh and relaxed, thereby improving mental health.
  • For regular bingo players, even a trip to thebingo hall is beneficial. It is a regular dose of exercise and improves both physical and mental health. For the elderly, this is a great way to stay mentally fit.

Bingo is a popular form of recreation across various parts of the globe. The game that originated in Italy in early 1500s today enjoys extensive patronage of people worldwide. Bingo comes in various versions and forms with many of the bingo halls dedicated to charity as well. The idea is to donate a fixed percentage of proceeds from ticket sales to charitable causes. Below is an outline of some versions of bingo that are commonly played in bingo halls.

  • 75-ball bingo: This is the version that is most commonly played in bingo halls. As the name suggests, the game is played with a total of 75 balls. A card containing 5 rows and 5 columns of random numbers from 1 to 75 is used. The balls are to be placed on this card.
  • 90-ball bingo: This version is popular in European nations. Also known as ‘housie’, it does not use the conventional 5x5 ticket. Instead a card with 3 rows and 9 columns is used. The winning combinations for this version of bingo include one row, double row, and a full card. Generally, many players believe that this version is easier to play than the 75-ball game.
  • 80-ball bingo: This version is among the latest innovations when it comes to the game of bingo. It combines features of both the 75-ball and 90-ball versions. 80-ball bingo is fast-paced and is placed on 4x4 tickets. The winning combinations can vary from simple lines to complex shapes and patterns.
  • 30-ball bingo: The 30-ball version guarantees higher odds of winning for players and is fast-paced in comparison to the 80-ball version too. The game uses 3x3 tickets and is used in games with progressive jackpots. Progressive jackpots are the ones where the jackpot to be won goes higher up with every round. As with other versions of the game there is no winning combination in 30-ball bingo. Rather, the player who manages to fill his or her card completely at the earliest is declared the winner.
  • Coverall bingo: This is a sub-variant under the 75-ball category. Coverall bingo is very easy to play as the player who covers his or her card first is declared the winner of the jackpot. Though this version can be quite slow when it comes to the pace of play the jackpots to be won are bigger.
