If you’re one of the many players who do not just play bingo for the mere enjoyment of the game but rather, care about strategy and returns, then it may be worth your while to consider playing bingo online as opposed to your favourite Las Vegas Bingo hall. 

Why, you may ask, well it’s actually quite simple when you think about it.  In general, Las Vegas bingo halls offer relatively low payout rates in comparison with their online counterparts, this is largely due to the fact that they have to cover huge staff overheads, as well as provide and maintain the venues in which their players play.  While overheads like these are still applicable to online operators, the overall costs are slightly lower and as such, they are able to provide players with huge free money bonuses and extravagant promotions.  This means that you get more out of your experience online than at a land based bingo hall, and have an even greater chance of winning.  Not to mention the fact that online bingo has auto-daub and card sorting features which assist and enhance your game play on multiple card games, making you way more effective than at a land based venue.

Add to the increased returns the convenience factor, where you don’t have to head out at, but can rather play from the comfort of your own home and the fact that online bingo allows you to be social and chat during the games, enabling you to meet new and interesting people and it’s not difficult to see why online bingo is the better bet.

Arizona Charlies did away with their Bonanza Jackpot as of Midnight on New Years Eve.

They are switching to a non progressive Dual Dab. The included pictures are for Arizona Charlies on Decatur. I’m not sure what Boulder is doing, although I heard Boulders IS progressive. I’ll post more on AC Boulder when I can get some straight answers.

AC Decatur also added 3-on-strips Super Coverall jackpot of $10,000 if the coverall is hit in 51 numbers or less on one of the 3-on-strips.

My source tells me the $12,000+ Bonanza money was to be split evenly over all 12 sessions Hotballs, making them all over $1,000 and a few of them over $2,000. I just got off the phone with Decatur and this hasn’t been added as of yet though.

UPDATE: The $12,000+ from the bonanza was applied to the Hotballs yesterday, so ALL the hotballs are over $1,000 with a few over $2,000.

The price went back up to $8 (Decatur) for a small Rainbow instead of the $7 they have been at.

Happy Dual Dabbing!

Here is some explanation about how the new Jumbo Bingo Jackpot is paid out. The jackpot starts at $100,000, but the winner gets paid $50,000 of that.

Payment of the jackpot funds will be as follows:

• Person having the winning ticket will receive $50,000.
  The remaining funds will be divided by the number of cards purchased Citywide using a Boarding Pass or Amigo card and will be paid in Xtra Play Cash for each card purchased. A Card being a 2-on. Cards purchased not using a Boarding Pass or Amigo card will not be counted. Each card will receive an equal amount.
  The funds will be available after the bingo session
  Example - A Jackpot is hit for $120,000.
  • The person having the winning card will be paid $50,000.
    There were 1,000 Jumbo Bingo tickets sold during that session.
    The remaining $70,000 will be divided equally among those players who purchased Jumbo Bingo tickets.
    Each ticket will receive $70 in Xtra Play Cash

Here is a bingo video I found on YouTube featuring Arizona Charlies on Decatur.

I said in a post this morning I had a feeling that the 1pm cashball at Sam’s Town would go this weekend. I should have went today instead of waiting for tomorrow. The cashball went today (friday) for $34,692! sighhh

Some lucky winner hit the cashball yesterday at the 1pm session winning $13,900.

Congrats!

I have a feeling about the Sam’s Town 1 pm cashball. I think someone will hit it this weekend. The 1 pm cashball is up to $34,692! I’m going to try and get across town for it tomorrow (is it doesn’t go today).
