How To Play 90-Ball Bingo

Overview: How To Play 90-Ball Bingo
90-ball bingo is the primary form of bingo played in the United Kingdom. At Jackpot Liner, the Bingo 90 game’s bingo cards have random numbers that range from 1 to 90. As soon as the bingo game has started, the Jackpot Liner computer will call out all 90 balls (from a pool of 90 balls) in random order.

When the numbers are called automatically during the game, you’ll see the numbers get marked off on your bingo card. If your bingo card has the number that is called, then that number is marked off. At Jackpot Liner, if the pattern on your bingo card matches the pre-determined winning pattern in 90-ball bingo, you will score BINGO and be eligible to win a prize.
