Gateshead Bingo Player Scoops £50K a Week After Relaunch

Gateshead Bingo Player Scoops £50K a Week After Relaunch

We love a good winner’s story here don’t we, which is why I thought I’d bring you news on the recent big jackpot winners. Since bingo clubs re-opened, land-based bingo venues have produced no less than five top-prize winners though it’s National Bingo Game link. That’s seven winners who managed to call house within 16 numbers to win £50K each!

The most recent winner was on Thursday 20th, a player regular to Buzz Bingo in Gateshead (Newcastle) who was flabbergasted upon realising they not only nabbed the full house prize, but the £50,000 prize on top! Wishing to remain anonymous, the giant-sized win is the first for the club since doors reopened just last week and naturally, the whole club revelled in their celebrations!

The winner said “When the caller said I'd won £50,000 I couldn't believe it! I've never been on holiday abroad so I'm going to book a holiday, pay off my mortgage and car, and treat my kids and grandkids." These linked bingo games are played twice a day; once in the afternoon and once in the evening with three jackpots up for grabs as well as a full house prize in each club.

Eyes Down for £50K

Playing the game will cost you a minimum of £1 and will be part of your overall bingo package. It’s 2 tickets for £1 or five for £2. In-club prizes will be specified on the day with just the full house up for grabs in each club if nobody manages to win a jackpot! Calling within 24 numbers will see you win an additional £100, call within 20 numbers for £1K or call in 16 numbers or less for a staggering £50,000!

Justine Curren, Assistant Manager at Buzz Bingo, Metro Centre says: “We can’t believe that just one week after reopening we’ve had a player win the National Game and scoop the big £50K prize; we’re utterly delighted to bring a little happiness to the community. The atmosphere when they won was incredible – everyone was on their feet cheering. It’s certainly a moment we won’t forget.”

Alastair Stewart, Business Development Manager at the National Bingo Game said: "We are thrilled for our lucky National Bingo Game £50,000 Jackpot Buzz Bingo Gateshead winner: it is great to welcome back players and celebrate winners, and we hope that they will enjoy the winnings, especially the family holiday.

Other £50K winners of this special 50-ball bingo game include a winner in Hartlepool on 16th July, one from Mecca Bingo in Stockton on August 3rd, a Castle Bingo winner from Liverpool on August 5th and one from Palace Bingo club in Great Yarmouth on August 7th.
