Hiya bingo players,

I did the dumbest thing that anyone can do playing bingo yesterday! I enter the .25 room and purchase 24 cards. I thought it was a pretty good deal considering it was buy one get one free.

As the game is about to start....I notice there is only me and one more player. I am feeling pretty good thinking i got a 50/50 shot to win. As the game begins i notice what the pot is worth...$6.25 to the winner.

Ok, i just invested $6.00 in the game so if i do win i make a whopping .25 profit. Now that is pure dumb on my part. Of course i did win. I am sure the other player was smart enough not play that many cards being there was only 2 of us in the room.

Just a word of caution when playing bingo.......ck what the pot is worth and how many players there are in the room. But then again, not quite sure anyone would be this DUMB!!!!

Thanks for letting me vent.....i feel better now!

Oh Lips.......My dear friend........May I ease your mind and tell you that you are not the only one who has done this? 

I too have jumped in both feet, only to realize that I was THE ONLY PLAYER!!!  LOL

I was guaranteed a win, thats for sure, but at what cost. LOL

Bingo just gets the best of me. hehe

"I live....therefore I learn" (to check the number of players in a room before buying my cards.) hahahahahahah

What would the bingo veterans say about us.......we are down right sinful! I can see us now playing at a live bingo hall........the blind leading the blind...lmaoooo

Oh, I dont think I could make the cut in one of those new fangled Bingo halls. Just walking in, they might see the "inexperience" on my face.  They can read you like that you know.  Smell your fear.

As discussed before, those women/men are down right serious when it comes to their bingo games.  Is there a hierarchy we dont know about?

I'd go in, sit in the wrong seat,  perhaps drop my cards, make some one else drop their cards, yet likely win with beginners luck, as I got chased out of the place as they were throwing Bingo cards at me. 

As my car peels out of the parking lot, I am counting my money. yee-hee

Then I'd be off to "crash" another Bingo Hall. 

Gee, all that sounds rather fun. Who's with me?  ;)
