In this article we will discuss what internet bingo is, and what great opportunities internet bingo has to offer.
Bingo's humble beginning can be traced back to its origin in Italy in 1530s and was called 'Lo Giuoco del Lotto D'Italia'. It was brought to America in the late 1929 after a carnival fair travelled in Europe. The aim of this game is, whoever managed to first cover a horizontal, vertical or diagonal line on a playing cardboard with numbers written and managed to shouts 'BEANO!', wins the game. Dried beans was use to mark the numbers, hence beano. By the late 1930s beano became bingo when Edwin S. Lowe, who saw it at carnival and introduced bingo to the market, overheard someone yelled 'BINGO!' instead. Then priest from Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania and whose parishioner was in financial trouble used it to raised funds. As a result, it came to attention that when played a larger scale, there were so many winners. This was solved by a math professor Carl Leffler, by producing sets of cards that would increase the number of combinations and not repeating the number of groups so that there will be only one winner. The game became more popular from there on.
In US and most countries, bingo is played in a 5x5 matrices and each letter of the B-I-N-G-O has 15 numbers each accordingly, ranging from 1-75. However, Bingo in UK has the format of a housie game, which is the term use in Australia and New Zealand in place of bingo. The card has 3 rows and 9 columns with blank spaces and the numbers range from 1-90. Traditionally, bingo is played in a bingo house but this is changing thanks to online bingo.
