Come early, come caffeinated, and listen closely. Maximize your chances of winning by playing games with fewer competitors and playing multiple cards at once. Choose cards that are more likely to win. For instance, look for a bingo card with many median numbers and very few repeated numbers.

The winner is the first person to cover five spaces in a row  vertical, horizontal or diagonal  in basic Bingo. Shout BINGO  when you get five marks in a row.
