A regular bingo player has expressed his anger after being banned from visiting his local Mecca Bingo hall. Murry Potter withdrew money from the hall’s cash machine only to discover the £100 consisted of fake notes.

Potter, aged 34 said “I showed the cashier the receipt I’d got from the machine, but she said they still couldn’t accept it. I’ve now been left £100 out of pocket, when both me and my wife are on benefit”

“I went there in the hope of making money, and this was the last thing we needed.

“I feel gutted, and from what I under-stand this has happened at this cash point before, so I’m wondering how long this will go on.

“The manager said he would have to check the CCTV and they have taken the money but have said they are still investigating it.

“I’ve been phoning them asking for the money repeatedly and I said I’ve reported it to the police, and now I’ve been barred from going there altogether.”

“We can confirm we have a report relating to counterfeit currency and we are investigating the matter” said a police spokesperson.

Mecca Bingo, said: “We are aware of the incident because a customer has approached us to say notes from the machine are counterfeit, but we do not know if it was from this machine or from somewhere else.

“Mr Potter has since been barred from our centre because he was found to have these notes.”

Mecca Bingo staff are going Sky Diving! The companies brave staff are taking part in a charity sky dive to raise funded for the children’s charity Whizz Kidz Charity. The participants hope to raise up to £250,000 for the charity which helps disabled children live a fun and fulfilling life.

The organisers have already raised over £100,000. Simon Gibb, Anna Mason, Kayleigh Greener and Carol Scott all work at the Mecca Bingo hall in Blyth and are braving it to raise money for the charity. “This latest challenge was the most exciting and nerve wracking fundraising event the team had ever done. Everyone has been so generous with their donations, But I would urge anyone who hasn’t already donated to dig deep. After all, it’s not every day we offer to throw ourselves out of a plane!” Anna Mason said.

This event demonstrates the benefits of playing bingo as it is a social game which brings people together. Mecca bingo hold several charity events helping raise money for numerous charity organizations. Mike Travis from the Mecca hall in Blackpool said, “We’ve been holding a number of fund raising events over the past months and this is probably one of the most exciting and certainly the most nerve-racking. Colleagues, club members, friends and family have all been extremely generous so far with their donations.”

The increasingly popular National Bingo game has created yet another millionaire.  The big bingo winner was a 64 year-old woman from the Basildon area playing at her local Gala Bingo club, and asked not to be named to stay out of the press.

She won a huge £1,023,353, on the last Sunday of the month when the National Game plays its play offs to find a guaranteed jackpot winner.  However much the bingo jackpot prize stands at on the final Sunday, it has to be won on that day, by whoever calls house in the least calls in the participating bingo clubs around the country.

Speaking to the nation gaming body, the lucky lady said:  “I am in total shock. I am still trying to get my head round it and it just won’t sink in. I have never been a lucky person, only winning £10 or £20 in the past. Nothing big ever.”

She told how she couldn’t get to sleep after the win, getting up at 5.30 to put some tea on: “Later on I went out and cut the grass, the same as usual. I don’t know what else to do. It is too much for me to take in. Not real.”

Her prize was broken down into the platinum jackpot prize of £942,249, national prize of £76,180, regional prize of £1,630 and the Gala Bingo club’s house prize of £240.

Bingo is fun, there’s no doubt about it. However, playing it entails risks. In bingo, you can never really tell whether or not the bingo caller or the electronic bingo machine will be calling out the numbers on your bingo tickets.

There have been debates regarding the predictability of the numbers that will be called out in bingo, just as there have been disputes regarding the predictability of the numbers in roulette and other games of chance. Whatever method of prediction is available out there, however, you can be pretty sure it has not been proven to work beyond any reasonable doubt. Bingo is a true game of chance; you need to have Lady Luck on your side if you are to win any kind of prize.

However, bingo is not much fun if you continue to lose or, put another way, you will certainly have more bingo fun if you win more games. What then can you do to improve your chances of winning and make Lady Fortune smile your way?

A Good Bingo Strategy

While it is true that you win and lose in bingo according to the whims of Lady Luck, there are still ways for ensuring that this fickle lady favours you more often than not. You just need to have a good, solid bingo playing strategy.

Just think of it this way. While it is true that you can not have any control over your chances of being in a motor accident, you can still try to minimize such chances by not going over the speed limit, by not unnecessarily overtaking other vehicles, by following good, old common sense – in other words, by following all the rules and by behaving on the road.

In the same way, while you have no control over the numbers that will be called next, you do have limited control over other aspects of the game. It is by controlling what you can that will be able to increase your chances of winning in bingo (and thus the amount of bingo fun you will have).

Controlling What You Can

Start with the bingo hall or the online bingo site you choose. A good bingo hall or bingo site is one that has good pay out rates. If a bingo site or bingo hall has never had any winners in its months or years of operation, then something must be wrong with it. Furthermore, the bingo site or bingo hall has to have a proven track record of paying its winners. I don’t know of any player who wants his or her prize to be converted to more bingo tickets.

In bingo, you also have control over your bingo tickets and how many tickets you will play in a game. A good strategy is getting a book of tickets that have all possible number outcomes.
