Bingo is a game we all love – but it can get frustrating when you’re in the heat of a losing streak and can’t shake a bingo!
To help you out and better your odds at picking up some “easy Bingo”, we’ve put together this little guide for you.
A few universal understanding:
- Having more players per bingo games is exciting if you love big prizes, as more players, the bigger the bingo game prize.
- But on the flip side, more players per game also means less odds for you to yell bingo.
Now, here are some tips to you improve your odds playing your favorite bingo games at Bingo Mania:
Best Time (according to February stats)
These stats are taken from the month of February which should serve as a good guide for you.
Best Time for the best Odds:
- Time: 2am – 9am EST (11pm – 6pm PST)
- Room: Pajama Room
- Average Player: 15-20 players per game
- Average prize per game: $45
- check out the Bingo Pajama room for details
Best Day of the Week:
- Day of the Week: Sundays
- Room: Loony Bin
- Average Players: 27 players
- Lowest time of the day: 8am to 9am : 10 players / average
Bonus Tip #1:
Coverall and fixed pot bingo games are very attractive. So you get more players and more wager per player (in other words players play with more cards on average) because of the sweet pot.
Though winning a huge pot like Mania’s coveralls and guaranteed pots, is what makes bingo very exciting, we think you can supplement your game play by also looking at regular pari-mutuels in each of our rooms. These games pay high but have less players per game and less card purchase per players.
Bonus Tip #2:
High Roller is higher card price compared to other bingo rooms at Bingo Mania, but it also has less players per game.
What this means: you do pay slightly more per card, but you also have better odds because of less players per game compared to Nut House and Loony Bin.
The above is just a start of some tips we thought would be helpful for you. To make things more exciting, we’ve got some cool ideas on a series of data and stats that we’d like to provide each of you so you can further make the right game purchase decisions to further position yourself for that nice juicy bingo pot.
Good luck and hope you find the above tips helpful.

UPDATE SEPT 21ST, 2010: Thank you for all the amazing suggestions and feedback. We’re frankly delighted to have such great members
… we’re compiling all the suggestions and feedback and will present to you in the next day or two, the complete details for Late Night Bingo … the new sessions will launch on Friday, October 1st.
Hiya Bingo Maniacs, in an effort to improve the late night bingo time slot, that would be from 2am to 7am EST, we’ve been bouncing off some ideas how to further improve these hours for all you night owlers.
Would love to hear your feedback and help us further improve the late night excitement.
Here’s what we’re thinking … (so far).
- close down nuthouse from 2am to 7am EST
- close down high roller from 2am to 9am EST
- make loony bin into a mix card costs from 2am to 7am EST (5 cents to 25 cent game)
- host a nightly pajamas bingo tournament where the top 5 players win an extra cash prize from 2am to 7am (see below)
- new line up of games 2am to 7am in loony bin (see below)
Why close down nut house and high roller during late night? simple – it’s more fun to have 15-20 players in one room, then 15-20 divided between 3 rooms. It means more exciting prizes for you.
Nightly Pajama Bingo Tournament + live leader board
Based on most number of games won between 2am to 7am EST:
- 1st place – $50 cash
- 2nd place – $35 cash
- 3rd place – $25 cash
- 4th place – $20 cash
- 5th place – $10 cash
Sample Hourly Session
- game 1 – coverall $2,500 min. $25 @ 25 cents
- game 2 – $2 seeded game at 5 cents
- game 3 – hi lo $25 / $5 pot @ 25 cents
- game 4 – naughty pot $12, $8, $5 @ 5 cents
- game 5 – Caffeine (coffee cup pattern) @ 25 cents … winner of the game also qualifies for an extra prize … they’ll get an extra 35 cent prize for every player who played the game. i.e. 10 players in the game, the player will receive an extra $3.50 … to claim prize, player open a ticket and provides game number and support to credit.
- game 6 – hi lo $25 / $5 pot @ 25 cents
- game 7 – mystery prize @ 5 cent a card (see below for example)
- game 8 – jumping dime (bouncing pot) $20, $12, $7 @ 10 cents

It is with great regret that we are announcing the closing of the Super High Rollers room as of September 12, 2008 at 5pm EST. The room has not been popular enough to keep it open.
Don’t fret about the Progressive Jackpot. We will be adding the entire jackpot amount of $12,768.47 from the Super High Rollers room to the current jackpot in High Rollers room as of September 12th at 5pm EST.
We want to express our deepest appreciation to all of our players over the past years!! THANK YOU!!
What type of games are you interested in?
What would you like to see as far as room structure is concerned? For instance what would be your ideal price of cards and type of games (75 ball or 90 ball; 2 N 1 games or 3 N 1 games)
We would greatly appreciate your input and ideas to create a room for your playing pleasure.
Here are a few ideas we have come up with so far:
Room open for a period of 4 hours like a Fair and Square room where card max is 10 cards
Price is fixed rate for example $1.00 card 10 card max and must buy all 10 cards,
Games that have some free cards, buy 3 cards get 1 free
Some mixture of 3N1 (like Money Pot) and 2N1 and single pattern games
Room to play specialty chat games like Keno, Races, Roulette
Team play room or tourney room
Cash only room – only play in room with cash no bonus money allowed to be used
Bonus only room – only play in room with bonus and only win bonus
Let us hear your comments and ideas!! Thank You for your Continued Support.

The Christmas Holidays are my favorite time of the year – a time for friends, family and of course some well deserved time off from work : D
But one part of the Holidays that I dread, is the creative thought process that goes into finding the right gift to show my appreciation to a loved one. And let’s not forget the overcrowded shopping centers.
 |
Over the years, I’ve used online shopping to alleviate the stress of retail shopping during the holidays. But each year, like many folks, I’ve struggled with the gift ideas part. So for this year, I did some poking around the World Wide Web and found several great ideas!
If you want to show your appreciation with a little creativity, then you’ll find these sources helpful.

I’m too loving our blog and glad to see many of our loyal bingo maniacs sharing their thoughts and suggestions with us. It means a lot … and all the comments are the life line for the success of the blog and our community.
If you’ve got something on your mind, we’re listening, please let us know.
Over the last couple of days, we’ve received tons of great suggestions. I want to summarize all the wonderful suggestions on today’s post, and see realistically what’s possible.
Suggestion: 150% Bonus Every Day
By: gallopingranny
My thought:
We’ve never been a site that offered the highest bonuses, because by giving out more bonuses we wouldn’t be able to continue to offer the prizes that we do. Over the years, we’ve managed to cut back on unnecessary expenses so we can afford to offer our member’s competitive bonus specials like our 2x per week 150% bonus, minimum 50% reload bonus and loyalty bonuses. We are also always investing in projects that we think make Bingomania different from the other bingo sites out there.
That all being said, I think its fair to say that we‘ve proven that you can count on us, we will always find new ways to help you stretch your money at BingoMania. And best of all, when you win big, we pay you:)
Suggestion: Change patterns more often
By: dewdropinn81 & Darlene
My thought:
I agree with your suggestion. Shame on us. I’ll speak with GM Bill and Jordan, and we will start changing our patterns more often.
Suggestion: Quickie games
By: abbingo winner & alwaysone
My thought:
I like this idea, we had plans for launching a quickie special room, not sure why we never went forward with it. I’ll speak with GM Bill and see what options we have. Thanks!
Suggestion: Show loyalty points to players
By: Rachy Rays
My thought:
You’ll be glad to know on the upcoming redesign of bingomania.com, this feature will be available.
Suggestion: Nakid Bingo Hour
By: NyBill
My thought:
Wow, you got my attention with this suggestion … how do you see this session playing out?
Suggestion: Slots & Bingo Tourney
By: Mooners44
My thought:
Currently, we have our weekly Bingo tourney on Friday Nights. In the very near future, we might add one big monthly tournament to the mix … this way, you’ll have our $12,000 Friday Bingo Tourney and once a month a bigger bingo tourney. I’m thinking we can start this late October, early November. We will keep you posted.We use to have a weekend Slots and Video Poker Tourney … unfortunately, not many of our members participated, so we stopped the tourney. It seemed that every other bingo site out there runs a similar event. At Mania, we try to offer you a different entertainment experience from what is currently offered at any one of our competitors. That’s not always easy…lol. With that said, we’ve got some ideas brewing here at the BingoMania HQ and hope it will be enjoyed by our Video Poker and Slots players. Stay tuned.
