80 Ball Bingo Gaining Popularity

Bingo has a long and storied history and the game is constantly evolving. For decades the traditional 75 ball game was the only version of bingo available to players. In the UK where bingo is wildly popular 90 ball bingo was introduced and was an instant hit in the UK and Australia.

In the online version 80 ball bingo cards are arranged with four columns and five rows and each column has a different color. The colors used on most cards are yellow, red, blue and silver.

Jackpots in excess of ten thousand pounds are now common and bingo players have never had it better. See what all the excitement is about and play 80 ball bingo at your favorite bingo site.

The online bingo play works almost exactly like playing online poker or online casino games with everything being virtual. Most bingo halls also offer links to online poker and casino offerings. One notable feature of online bingo is the chat functionality that gives the opportunity to interact with other players.
