Online Bingo Vs Offline Bingo
When it boils down to it, online bingo is the new, improved way of playing bingo. But that doesn’t mean it is for everyone.
Let’s compare the traditional bingo hall game to the new online bingo revolution:
The “old” way of playing bingo at a bingo hall, to some, might be simpler. It just involves finding out where and when the games are being played, and getting there! Online bingo is a little bit more complicated, but finding the best site is easy. Especially since there are a variety of online portals specifically designed to find you the top bingo sites. An example is Online Bingo.com which will direct you to great bingo sites with the biggest jackpots and greatest promotions.
Another great aspect of these sites is that you can read bingo-related articles and find out the latest news in the comfort of your own home. Most online bingo portals offer a glossary, or bingo lingo, that will tell you what the latest terms are, so you are kept up to speed.
One of the main differences between online bingo and halls is the socializing. Now that online bingo sites have chat rooms, the social side of the game, so important to many bingo-hall fans, is available online too.
However, there are still obviously some differences. When you go to a bingo hall, you get to met people in your community and have conversations with them, the old fashioned way. Online you have chat rooms, where the people don’t only come from your community, but other communities all over the world. You can learn about other cultures and learn about different cultures but this does mean there is no physical contact, as there would be in a bingo hall.
Some bingo sites have community areas, where people can post up their photographs and have bingo forums. Here you can post your opinions and ideas, as well as your questions.
This is almost as good as the real thing.
Let’s get to the real advantage of online bingo - the jackpot! At a bingo hall the jackpot is usually quite small, being reliant on the number of people that participate. This is because the jackpot is made up of the entrance fees taken at the door.
Online bingo, however, has large jackpots that go right up to a million dollars and beyond. The jackpots are also on more of a regular basis and even when there isn’t a major jackpot, online bingo sites always have ongoing promotions, prizes and vacations up for grabs.
Another advantage of playing online is security. If you win at a bingo hall, everybody there knows you have won and then you have the burden of carrying your winnings home with you. With online bingo, nobody really knows who are, as you have a username and you are in the safety of your own home. Plus, when you do decide to cash out your winnings, it is done online which is safer
Overall it seems that playing online is just a better and more exciting way to play. Registration is easy, your financial details are secure, games are updated on a regular basis, jackpots grow faster and you get to play in the anytime, anywhere – no need to leave home!
