The heart of online bingo is the bingo chat room where players can socialize with their bingo buddies. But there is an added attraction to be found in the online bingo chat room – the fun and exciting bingo chat games offered by many online bingo sites.
These so-called chat games or table games are extra mini-games that can be played while continuing to play online bingo. They are extremely popular and help with breaking the ice if you’re new to a chat room, or for creating a great atmosphere for socializing. Chat games give bingo players something to chat about if they’ve just met. It can also get the entire chat room very vocal and involved.
Sometimes the bingo chat games are pre-scheduled, while in other bingo chat rooms the chat master will decide at random intervals to hold a chat game. If you’ve just arrived in a bingo chat room, always ask the chat room master if there are any scheduled chat games. The rules of the game will usually be posted up in the chat room and should be fairly simple.
Bingo chat games are usually simple games that are either played just for fun, or have the added incentive of awarding free bingo bucks or bingo cards to the winner. In fact, some online bingo websites sometimes offer great prizes if you win a chat game. Examples of types of bingo chat games are the games “Dunk the CM” and “Lucky 7’s”. In “Dunk the CM” the player picks any three numbers except for the numbers 1, 2 and 3 which are assigned to the CM. If your number is called before the CM’s, then you type Dunk the CM and are the winner. In “Lucky 7’s” the bingo player selects any two numbers with a 7 and wait for those numbers to be called. “Lucky Devil” is a bingo chat game where the 6th player to type the words “Lucky Devil” after the 66 ball is called, wins. This can be as exciting as yelling out Bingo and requires full participation and attention from the bingo player.
If you’re a bingo player on a budget, then these chat games are perfect for extending your play time. You could win extra bingo points that will keep you playing longer without having to dig into your pockets. There’s nothing more exciting for a bingo player than to be so pre-occupied with bingo chat games that you only notice later that you’ve also won a round of bingo!
