Top Ten Bingo Tips

1. Never play more cards than you can watch.

2. Buy the max amount of bingo cards. We can't stress this enough. The more cards you have, the better your chances of winning, as many players do not buy the max.

3. Paper cards with lower card numbers (free space #) tend to have the numbers closer together card #1 (B-1, 2, 3, 4 & 5; I-16, 17, 18, 19 & 20). Longer games like Coveralls tend to draw numbers in sperts close together. 16 17 then 19 and 20 come out. To win more coveralls, try to come in early and get the first set of paper cards issued. On big nights managers stock the counter with plenty cards usually the ones on top are the lowest free space number cards

4. Buy the max bingo cards you can while still getting free bonus bingo cards. If the bonus is buy 5 cards and get 3 free, and max cards are 135, buy 85 cards to get exactly 136 or 80 to get 128.

5.  Use the Bingo Board on the game screen to double-check that you have marked every matching number.

6. Look under Cards for Bonus Round on the game screen to see how many bonus cards you have.

7. Occasionally a colored Bonus Ball will appear under Last Called Number. If it appears on any of your cards, and it falls within the pattern you have selected to play, you will earn a card for the Bonus Round. Also, bonus points will be added to your score. If it falls outside the pattern, you will earn nothing.

8. Get bonuses as much as you can. Bingo bonuses help give you an advantage in the game. You can get up to $120 on every bonus at Mapau Bingo, so make to deposit the max each time.

9. Look under For Bingo on the game screen to see how many points you earn for Bonus Balls (and other points

10. If you don't feel like hunting for bingo numbers as they are called, you can let numbers be called and then pause the game and start clicking numbers on your card(s). Valid numbers will be marked, and other numbers will make a sound to let you know they are invalid.
