BingoStreet Free Keno

I for one am glad to see that Bingostreet is branching out into the world of online keno games, as it’s one of those games now freely available online and in the same family as bingo and lotto.

If you’ve never sat down and played a keno game, then now’s an ideal time to start. With the Bingostreet Free Keno game ready for action at anytime, you just need a few seconds to create your account and then you’re off.

As with online bingo, the game of keno is all about the balls. No balls? No keno! You get to pick your choice of numbers from the board, place your bet and then wait for the balls to pop in. The more balls you predict correctly, the more you win. Simple, and great fun too!

Game Village

I’ve only very recently heard about the new Game Village bingo site - it’s one of the newest bingo sites on the online bingo UK scene at the moment, and it’s making huge waves!

One of the few bingo sites around that uses its very own bingo software, it presents bingo fans with a complete virtual village community, which makes it an extremely rewarding and exciting place to play bingo online.

Game Village currently has 5 bingo rooms to choose from, and not only the regular 75 and 90 ball bingo games, but extra variations of the game including the extremely exciting Elimination Bingo game. You’ll also find some totally addictive extra games at this bingo site, including Dingo and SuperGems, which you can play in multiplayer tournament style - you’ll find that once you start you won’t be able to stop, it’s that addictive!!!

But the one thing that makes Game Village stand out from the crowd, is the extra effort they’ve put in to make their own virtual village community. You’ll need to make 3 deposits to qualify for a special invitation, and then you get your very own house in the bingo village!

All sorts of exciting extra’s come when you reach homeowner status, you can use the map and roam around the streets meeting your new bingo buddy neighbours, hold private house parties, even private bingo games, and much more! A great touch is the changing colour and status of your house, the longer you live in the village you’ll see your house change colour and grow bigger, until eventually if you reach the highest level it’ll turn into a brilliant gold castle!

Mother’s Day

Don’t you just wish it was Mother’s Day every weekend? I love it when we get a special occasion like this which perks up the online bingo world in a flurry of hot bingo promotions and special prize draws - love it!

So where are the hottest places to be this weekend? Well there’s an awful lot to choose from, but thankfully with the pre-purchasing of bingo tickets option now widely available among online bingo UK sites, you can go crazy if you like and play every single online bingo game that’s up for grabs this weekend - without having to miss a single special Mother’s Day jackpot bingo game!

If I had to choose which sites to play bingo at this weekend, I’d go for the following choices:

Wink Bingo - our #1 fave bingo site at Bingostreet have:

  • Fri - Risk Free Bingo game tonight @9.45pm £500 JP
  • Sat - Free bingo games daily at 2pm and 7.30pm
  • Sun - Mega £5,000 Mother’s Day penny bingo game

You can pre-purchase all your tickets for the above online bingo games at Wink Bingo at anytime up until kickoff - dont’ forget!

Another hot fave of late is Sun Bingo, these guys are holding a marathon on Sunday night from 7pm through to 10pm, where each TOTH online bingo game sports a cool jackpot prize of £1000, and the 9pm game has 3x £1000 prizes - pre-buy your tickets now!

Cheeky Bingo - I just love playing the free bingo games here, it’s so easy, no fuss no frills, plain free bingo with cash prizes. OK so if you’re looking to become a bingo billionaire it’ll take a while, but they still have a pretty decent £5,000 bingo jackpot up for grabs (guaranteed) every Friday night - well worth a shot! And I love that you can play free bingo games here anytime you want!

So that’s it folks, my fave bingo sites of the moment, and I’ll be popping into these three over the weekend, might even see you there! Have a great weekend, and happy Mother’s Day!!

Torn between playing bingo at the bingo hall and playing bingo online?

Torn between playing bingo at the bingo hall and playing bingo online? There are many reasons to choose the latter as explained in the following piece.

Optimum Environment

If you're using a desktop computer, online bingo can be accessed from the comfort of your own home. If you're using a laptop computer, you can access online bingo halls from virtually anywhere! By taking advantage of this benefit, one does not need to travel, so more game time is enjoyed. Furthermore, if you are playing online you can save countless dollars that would otherwise be spent on food at the bingo hall! Another benefit is being able to have a familiar menu of snacks from your own fridge makes online bingo playing that much more enjoyable.

Socializing at your Fingertips

Another advantage of playing bingo in the comfort of your own home (or coffee shop, or wherever you happen to be) is that it will be a lot less crowded, noisy, and overbearing than the environment of a traditional bingo hall. You won't have to shout to talk to your friends, and you can listen to your own music whilst effortlessly communicating with thousands of people through the chat features available on most bingo websites.

Instant Gratification

Playing bingo with multiple cards can be difficult for a normal person as the fast pace and unrelenting bingo calls can wear you down. However, while playing bingo online, most websites offer the auto-daub feature, which allows players to purchase and keep track of their card in amounts never before thought possible. The greater amount of cards you purchase increases your odds of winning, and thus one of the greatest parts of bingo is expanded - the winning! The auto-daub feature also leaves one free to chat, removing the awkward silence found in halls during bingo games.

Personality

If playing in a bingo hall, you don't often get a chance to meet anyone, whereas in online bingo, the fun never stops. The online chat hosts keep the chat bouncing and you can play in special chat games for extra cash which give you even more opportunities to win it big! In bingo halls the caller can be monotonous and repetitive. Whereas with online bingo the variety of callers and the company of the chat hosts, you get the chance to thrive in a dynamic environment online.

Convenient Savings for yourself and the Environment

Bingo is a fun and inexpensive way to gamble. However, it's the side costs that add up in the real world. Bingo cards cost money and paper to print, and this is reflected in the cost of cards as well as in the garbage that gets put out the back at most bingo halls. The cost of daubers can add up as well. And don't forget about the precious fuel and time that are consumed on the way to the bingo hall. All of these problems can be easily alleviated by playing online bingo, where the cards are digitally created and disposed of with no more effort than the click of a mouse.

Fast-Paced Action

Online bingo has adapted to suit the pace of the modern world by keeping the games playing with greater alacrity than bingo halls. The auto-daub feature available on most online bingo games makes it easier to keep up with these fun and fast-paced games. This feature helps to eliminate much of the time problems caused by the distribution of real bingo cards, ball drawing, and ball calling. Now you can spend your time watching the numbers fall and chatting with your friends!

Bingo Nights in Modern Times

Ever wanted to host a bingo night/soiree in the comfort of your own home, but never had the resources? Thanks to the convenience of online bingo, every one of your friends with a portable computer can come over, and you could have a network game with just your best friends. Or get everyone to connect to your favorite site at an agreed upon time and you'll all be chatting and playing the night away! Playing at home provides the additional incentive of selecting the music - always an important bingo component.

All in all, the benefits of playing online bingo far outweigh any of the negative attributes. The convenience, ease of play, and overall fun combined with the home-style atmosphere and comforts add up to a fantastic time whether alone or with friends. Online bingo is never a bad choice when you need a fun way to spend your day.
