If you’re new to bingo, it’s easy to get started! First, purchase a buy-in pack. We have both traditional paper and electronic games. We recommend beginners start with electronic. If you decide to go with the traditional paper games, we have daubers for purchase. The buy-in for morning sessions includes 10 bingo games, with nine bingo cards, or 9-on. The matinee and evening sessions feature 12 games with 12-on.
Add-ons
House Special Pack: Purchase a House Special pack to receive additional games that offer a higher progressive pot. Games are played every third game.
Fish Bowl Progressive Pot
We’ll draw a fish bowl number before each morning, matinee, and evening session. Each time the fish bowl number is called during the regular session and no one bingos, the pot progresses (amount is designated for the particular session in play). When someone bingos on a fish bowl number (and they’ve purchased a fish bowl ticket for that session), that winner is awarded the fish bowl pot amount in addition to the prize amount for that game. Once the progressive amount is won, the fish bowl pot is reset.
To play in the fish bowl pot games, you must purchase an additional ticket for $1. The pot starts at $100 for morning sessions and $200 for matinee and evening sessions.
