Feeling played by Bingo. :(

[Tasha]

So, I had a free Bingo card and I played REALLY hard to get three extra Bingo cards. Bingo started at 2 and I had four Bingo cards from the get go. Bingo was at 2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and I lost every single round by just ONE number. This is fucked up and I once again played REALLY hard for those three extra Bingo cards, only to lose!

Edit. And on top of that, they lowered the free play payout to only $75 when it used to be $100. I only found out AFTER I played hard that the payout was lowered. I definitely wouldn't have played so hard for a LOWERED free play payout has I known that going in. And I didn't even win any of the Bingos, so I played hard to LOSE, throwing money for something that was lowered and that I didn't even win!

One of my Casino Friends won the $75 right off the bat with his single free card, another Casino Friend won on THREE Bingo Cards in a single round for $225, and here I am, having four Bingo cards for 7 rounds and STILL lost. So fucked up.

It's tough, especially with the payout changes catching you off guard—that can really sour the experience. For a change of pace, check out Pleeease. I started mixing up where I play after a few rough patches like yours, and it helped me find a bit more balance and fun.

I went an entire month without winning a single Bingo at the main Casino that I play Bingo at. If it weren't for winning $300 in free play at another Casino that does Bingo once or twice a month, that would have been my ass! I'm grateful that other Casino Bingo saved my ass.

Bummer.

[Tasha]

Bummer.

Yep, can't believe I went an entire month without winning a single Bingo at my main Casino that does Bingo. It's frustrating to have four Bingo cards right off the bat for 7 rounds of Bingo and still lose.

I don't understanding why you are whining about not winning at Bingo, Tasha: it's callled "variance," aka "luck."

Maybe it would seem statisitically unfair if you were playing against only one or two others but you play in a casino's Bingo hall with perhaps hundreds of other hopeful Bingo addicts all hungering for the win.

Do the math.

I was recently in a casino where they ONLY said the bingo numbers in Spanish. I don’t even really know Spanish numbers very well….I would’ve been upset if I was playing bingo REALLY hard and had trouble understanding numbers.

Not upset, bothered and made to feel VERY uneasy?

Hialeah Park Casino does say Bingo numbers in Spanish, but that is because Hialeah is predominantly Hispanic and Latino. The Caller says something like,"B1, Beh (How to say B in Spanish, )uno(one in Spanish " )

Fortunately the word for bingo in Spanish is also bingo so at least if you get a bingo you won’t have to worry about what to yell out.

I am playing Bingo at one of my local Casinos and I lost Bingo THREE times by ONE number, story of my luck. :/ At least Bingo cards are FREE, and I'm not chasing any Bingo cards.

First of all, they don’t even say it in English. Second, B sounds more like Veh, and what about when it’s like 34? It’s bullshit.

Is your Casino Bingo in a predominantly Hispanic/Latino Casino? Because I can't see a Bingo Hall/Casino Bingo doing Bingo numbers in all Spanish in a predominantly English speaking area. Hialeah does English and then Spanish. I've never heard of a Bingo Hall/Casino Bingo that does the numbers ONLY in Spanish. I guess a big board that has all the numbers would be the only way for pure English Speakers to know what numbers were called.

Technically it was a mostly bilingual US territory. There’s even blacktino’s who speak primarily Spanish like dominicanos and such.

Oh, so it was either Puerto Rico, Guam, or the Virgin Islands.

I won ONE Bingo round out of 10 rounds. I won $300 in free play.

Uh oh ...you won ... the hook has been set ... could be rough water ahead...

I watched that Bingo Documentary a couple of weeks ago. I do feel the frustrations about being one number away, something I bring up when I post about Bingo.

Ugh... bingo has to be the most boring form of gambling ever. With Keno coming in a close second.

[MDawg]

I read years ago that in the entire time Keno has been around no one has hit the top potential lick on it at a brick and mortar casino, is that still the case?
