Choosing the right card for the bingo game
It is said that bingo is a game based entirely on chance. However, some theories suggest that the choice of bingo grid contributes significantly to the win or loss. However, it is important to know these tips in order to choose the right cardboard and increase your chances of winning at bingo.
Granville’s theory
Granville was a mathematician and a bingo enthusiast in his day. He therefore stated that the choice of cardboard is very important in bingo. This is based on the laws of probability. In other words, bingo is not that risky. This mathematician therefore detected the flaws in the game, particularly in bingo 75, and came up with some probability tricks to increase his chances of winning. A great French mathematician whose tricks are still used today.
That said, the probability of a number being drawn is 1 in 75. When choosing the cardboard, three essential elements must therefore be taken into account. Firstly, you must ensure that the quantity of numbers ending in 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 is the same. The same applies to the quantity of even and odd numbers. Finally, high and low numbers must also be equal.
All in all, in order to choose the right cardboard, a certain homogeneity must be sought. This is especially true for 75-ball bingo. For 90-ball bingo, only the first two points count. It is also useful to choose a cardboard box with 7 even and 8 odd numbers with all 10 units represented.
Tippett’s theory
Tippett is a statistician from the United Kingdom. He has developed a theory that would also increase the chance of winning at bingo. His theory is thought to be quite complex, but some players still try their hand. His theory applies to 75-ball bingo.
In a simplified way, the theory states that during a long game, it is better to choose a card with numbers that are closer to the median of 75, including 38. Otherwise, in a shorter game, it is better to choose a card with numbers closer to 1 and 75.
Other tips
Always with the aim of increasing your chances of winning, in addition to the choice of cardboard, there are other points to remember. Indeed, there is what is called the aggressive strategy and the defensive strategy. The first consists in gathering as many cards as possible with a maximum of common numbers. As its name suggests, with this strategy, you have the chance to win more than once. To be adopted during games with a large win and a large number of players.
The other strategy, called defensive, consists of extending the game. The goal is rather to have fun. It is suitable for games with few players and small wins. This is especially true for live games as well as online games. However, when playing online, in addition to choosing the grid carefully, you must also choose the site on which to play. Indeed, not surprisingly, the reliability of the sites is not the same.
Finally, to play live, choose a room with few players, but with a lot of winnings. Similarly, it is recommended to buy as many cards as possible. This considerably increases the chance of winning. All in all, bingo is a game of chance, but it is also tactical, especially when it comes to the choice of cardboard. Indeed, it is a question of probability and above all of concentration.
