Bingo odds

Some people believe that their chances of winning increase proportionately with the number of bingo cards they play. Although that’s true, the advantage is less than most people expect or hope. Take our example of 200 bingo cards in play. Your odds go from 1 in 200 to 1 in 40 if you’re playing five of those cards rather than a single card. But consider your odds from another angle: by paying five times as much to play, you’re only decreasing your odds of losing from 199 out of 200 to 195 out of 200. And you’re also losing your money five times as fast.

In short, it pays to check out a game and mentally calculate your odds before laying down your cash and picking up your cards. The more cards you play, the more interesting the game. But the key is to play where there are fewer cards competing for that prize.
