I have a few friends who started playing Bingo recently and in the space of a few weeks they’ve become proper little know-it-all’s. Every day they keep hitting me with heaps of Bingo trivia … and although I won’t admit it to them, I’m actually finding it rather interesting. A few of them are smokers and because they can no longer smoke in Bingo halls, they play Online Bingo at home on their computers. (Link – Take a look at “Your Answer to the Smoking Ban.”)

Their latest coup though, concerns four rather big Bingo cash winners who recently won tens of thousands of Pounds … and in one case, over a million Pounds. Now that’s something to shout about, huh? (Hmm, maybe I ought to start playing).
Why not take a peek at the rich winners list below – starting with the biggest and working down from there:

Winner Number 1.

Christine Bradfield who plays twice a week with her sister-in-law Lorraine Williams, was recently playing the National Bingo Game, linking up Bingo halls around the UK, when she won the Platinum Jackpot of, wait for it … £1,101,686. Yup, she’d won over one million Pounds.

And guess what? Because she always plays with Lorraine, she’s decided to split the winnings with her, fifty-fifty. “We’re best friends, partners in crime and have always shared our winnings,” she said. “We’ll enjoy the money twice as much by sharing it around.” A fantastic way to look at it, don’t you think? Well done Christine!

Oh and by the way, this jackpot is thought to be the biggest Bingo win in the world, ever!

Winner Number 2.

An Online Bingo player who will remain anonymous except for his or her mysterious codename, “eibbed57,” walked away with a staggering £125,510 playing the Sands of Fortune instant game! This winner placed a bet of just £45 in between bingo cards. Swipe me!

Winner Number 3.

Stephen J, from Northumberland, a regular Bingo player, whose mom was sitting beside him when he won JackpotJoy’s biggest ever Bingo Gold Jackpot amounting to £99,342 can’t believe his luck.

“I’m still a bit ill with shock,’’ he said on Monday morning. Stephen’s mum, who also has a lucky streak, had previously won £13000. Stephen is intending to pay off his mortgage and then, as promised, take his friend to the theme parks of Florida as payment of a bet they made.

Winner Number 4.

Two lucky ladies recently shared £36,000 whilst playing the National Bingo Game … on the same night. The 36 year-old from Scotland was bewildered by her fantastic bingo win and the 69 year-old pensioner from Great Yarmouth is already planning a holiday of a lifetime.

Both ladies called up on the National Bingo Jackpot Game in 43 numbers and shared the cash prize of £32,724 equally between them. They both also picked up the regional cash prizes and the house prizes thus ending up with bingo winnings totalling just over £18,000 each! That’s the ticket!
