How to play 90-ball bingo

Although you can use any amount, traditionally, 90-ball bingo is played using a full strip of cards. Six individual bingo cards make up a strip, with all 90 numbers scattered amongst them. During each round, all 90 balls are called in random order. On any card, you can win by dabbing out all the numbers on one and/or two lines, or by completing an entire card – the iconic full house.

Rules

In any round of 90-ball bingo, each number can only be called once. This is why it’s ‘eyes down’ time. It’s also when a jam-packed, buzzing bingo hall suddenly falls silent. To win, all one-line, two-line and full house winners must shout bingo for it to be valid. Also, cards are usually checked by an independent party before play commences or a new round begins.

Prize structure

You can organise the prizes however you like, but generally the prize value increases with each win:

  • 3rd prize: all the numbers on any one-line, on any card.
  • 2nd prize: all the numbers on any two-lines, but on the same card.
  • 1st prize: all the numbers on one card, equalling a full house.

Because it’s a bit like winning the lottery, some bingo rooms have a special jackpot for anyone who wins all three in one round.

90-ball bingo card design

Each 90-ball bingo card design is set out like a grid: 9 columns and 3 rows, totalling 27 boxes. For ease, from left to right, column values increase by values of ten:

  • Column 1: numbers 0-9.
  • Column 2: numbers 10-19.
  • Column 3: numbers 20-29, etc.
  • The last being column 9: numbers 80-90.

Each row is what’s referred to as ‘a line’ in one and two-line wins. Some boxes are blank; unlike 75-ball bingo’s wildcard, here they serve no purpose.

Print 90-ball bingo cards in 3 simple steps

Ball

Okay, you’re almost there. It’s time to think about drinks and snacks and locate your best dabbers while your shiny new 90-ball bingo cards print off. Printing should be a breeze, just follow these 3 simple steps.

Tip: using the cards you can see on-screen now, print a test sheet first.

First step: pick a colour

We’ve given you a choice of 7 great rainbow colours to choose from: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, dark blue, violet. Be sure to check you’ve got enough ink in your print cartridge before you choose one and remember to set your printer to colour. Otherwise, just select black and white.

Second step: set print dimensions

Make sure your printer is set to a standard A4 print format, or portrait size, and formatted in the upright position. These dimensions should already be set by default, but it’s useful to use the print preview function before burning through sheets of paper and wasting playtime.

Third step: create and print

Now you’re ready to roll, using the control panel (underneath colour options), select ‘create new cards’ and then hit ‘print’. You’ll no-doubt be excited, but try wait a few minutes for the print to dry before you grab them. Your friends should be pretty impressed by your bingo card creation, but smudged numbers and dirty finger prints won’t win any prizes.

90-Ball Bingo is the most common version of bingo found in the UK, Australia and some parts of Europe. As opposed to the traditional American version of 75-Ball Bingo, 90-Ball Bingo is played with 90 balls and bingo tickets, rather than cards.

A 90-Ball Bingo ticket has 9 columns and 3 rows. Players will buy one sheet of six tickets, containing 90 numbers. While each row contains nine squares, only 5 of the squares are numbered with the remaining four left blank. Numbers range from 1 to 90, with all 90 numbers on each sheet of tickets. Therefore, every time a number is called, the player will be daubing that number on one of his or her tickets.

As in all bingo games, the object is to complete a pattern. However, the patterns remain consistent, where 75-Ball Bingo offers more than 300 patterns depending on the game. There are three possible winnings patterns in 90-Ball Bingo, One Line, Two Line and Full House (all three lines).

A One Line Pattern is where the player manages to mark, or daub, all numbers in a single line. Once a player has achieved a One Line Pattern, that player will call bingo and win the pre-determined prize for that pattern. Then the game continues until a player wins the Two Line Pattern.

A Two Line Pattern is won by completing two lines on a single 90-Ball Bingo ticket. Once a player has complete the Two Line Pattern, they will win the predetermined prize for that pattern, and once again gameplay continues until a player achieves a Full House Pattern.

As you may have guessed by now, a Full House is won by completing all three lines of a single 90-Ball Bingo ticket. This awards the largest prize and finalizes the round of 90-Ball Bingo. Players will now purchase a new sheet of tickets and begin playing in the same manner.

The prize for a 90-Ball Bingo game, unless otherwise specified, is determined by the number of players participating in the bingo game. A percentage of the total ticket purchases goes to the prize pool, another percentage may go to a progressive jackpot prize, assuming there is one, while the remainder goes to the online bingo hall who is supplying the game.

90-Ball Bingo games with a progressive jackpot will award the jackpot to any player who achieves a Full House within a certain numbers of balls called. For instance, at some online bingo halls, a player who achieves a Full House pattern within 30 balls will be awarded the jackpot. Some online bingo halls will provide a smaller jackpot awarded to a player who achieves a Full House in 34 to 38 balls.
