Another idea i was thinking was that each bingo participant plays bingo and claims as many bingo (the exclamation not the game) as possible, until the carton/card is maxed out....And each claim of bingo (the exclamation not the game), a person receives points...Each points could worth different points...and you play like that until you've accumulated a lot of points or the most points...And you can reward the first place second and third place...Or you can reward just one place, number one...Is...

I've played bingo at the Indian casinos,it's a lot of work keeping track of all those cards and spotting them. It seems like even MORE work when you don't win anything which I never did. For a 4 hour session it was $17,a whole heck of a lot less if I was actually in the casino playing machines so in that respect it's worth it

I'll like to Invent a different way to play bingo...LIke inventing a way that we could play bingo more easily or that it will be more fun to play...

For example i just thought of playing bingo and the first person that claims the bingo come in first place, while the second person comes in second place, and so on successively, and each rank gets different points...And at the end the person with more points wins the jackpot...This way each person has a fair chance to win and not just the person...

yeah i learned today before you posted this that it had like a zillion different ways a bingo cards possible....But that's not what i meant...What i mean is, If 20 people each bought 10 or 5 cartons/cards, someone or a couple of people will have to win soon or later....I think 552,446,474,061,128,648,601,600,000 if there was such an odd, would be to win it on the first 3 or 4 balls draw with 1 card/carton, even though i don't think it will be that much, it might be something like 200 Million...W...

Depends on the game - lots of variations.

There are 552,446,474,061,128,648,601,600,000 different bingo cards possible.

If you selected 24 numbers that fit on a bingo card you could arrange them in 4,976,640,000 different ways.

Just thought you'd like to know. And you thought lottery odds were long.....
