A hat trick, (or hat-trick), is a term used in sports when a triple is scored.  I’m not sure if the same term can be officially applied to bingo, but hey, I’m gonna use it because we had a bingo hat trick with our Viva Las Vegas Competions. The player known as trudy_bm managed to get ahead and stay ahead on points in 3 of our bingo las vegas competions, resulting in her winning 3 x 3-day weekend trips to Las Vegas! Now that has to be a hat trick don’t you think?  Congratulations to trudy_bm, I’m sure she will have the time of her life in Las Vegas. The competitions have ended for the time being, but will resume again in October.

I had an email from one of our newer UK bingo players, who was asking about bingo patterns. Mostly uk bingo is played in the 90 ball bingo variation, with 75 ball bingo being the more popular bingo game in America. The 75 ball bingo game can have many variations of pattern. Sometimes for instance you will see a game announced that will say something like ‘bingo on the ‘L’ pattern’. This means that on the bingo grid, you will see an ‘L’ and you need to get all the numbers that form that letter to win. It isn’t always alphabetical letters that are the basis of the bingo patterns. Numbers and symbols can be used, as well as outlines of pictures, for instance an easter egg or a christmas tree.

You can devise you own bingo pattern and send it in to us. We cannot guarantee all bingo patterns submitted will be used, but we try our best to incorporate new patterns into the bingo games. If you want to create a special bingo pattern to send to us, just go to our bingo patterns page, and fill in the squares that will outline your pattern, then select either static (still) or moving. Its a good time to start experimenting with patterns, maybe you can come up with a great Christmas pattern that we can use, and you can have the thrill of seeing your very own bingo pattern in play at Starlight Bingo, and who knows, you may even win a jackpot on your own pattern!  Anything is possible in the world of bingo online.

It can happen often that online bingo  players have repeated wins during one session of play, as I’ve mentioned before, its the luck of the numbers draw that really determines the wins. Some players have a succession of lucky days, whilst others are not so lucky, then things seem to go vice versa.

An example of lucky runs could well be demonstated with these 2players;

The player known as TheeLadyInRed has played our Keno games recently. Between the 1st of August and the 13th August she had 12 wins! On the 8th August she had 4 wins of $300, and on the 11th August she had 2 wins of $100, and 2 wins of $200, other wining days were single wins, of $150, $200 and $300.  Come along and try your lucky numbers on the great game of Keno.

Another recent example was the player known as JOEYD, who was playing another extremely popular game of pull tabs.  There are different themes of tabs to pull, and on 13th August, this player chose pull tabs race, and won $250. He then chose to play on pull tabs gold and on the same day, and the same playing session, he won $1,550! 

Of course we see this trend a lot, and it sure gives us a great feeling too when our players win win win, whatever games they are playing, be it bingo, slots, keno or pull tabs. For me personaly, I like the e-mails I get when players have used auto-buy option, and gone out for the day, or if at night time, gone to bed, then when they log back in to check, they have had several wins, the excitement and joy in their emails written to tell us is such a wonderful feeling, even though we didn’t have any part in them winning, we provided the great games that gave them that chance to win.

Wishing all our players many lucky wins! If you haven’t tried our online bingo games and other online games yet, you can get your free bingo games download sign up for an account, and start playing and winning in minutes.
