How To Play 90-Ball Bingo

Overview: How To Play 90-Ball Bingo
90-ball bingo is the regular version of bingo played in the UK. The Bingo 90 game’s bingo cards at Bingo Liner have random numbers ranging from one to 90. Once the bingo game has begun, the Bingo Liner computer will call out (in random order) all 90 Bingo balls from a pool of 90 balls.

You’ll watch the numbers get marked off on your bingo card when the numbers are called automatically during gameplay. If your bingo card has the number that is called, then that number is marked off. You’ll win B-I-N-G-O and be eligible to win a prize in 90-ball bingo at Bingo Liner if the pattern on your ticket matches the predetermined winning pattern.

1st place goes to the player that correctly marks off any horizontal line, second place goes to the player that correctly marks off any 2 horizontal lines, and the “Full House” winner correctly marks off all 3 horizontal lines on the card.
