Five in a row, blackout, X, and four corners are the most common ways to win at bingo. However, bingo halls frequently devise new ways to win bingo and offer "unique pattern" games, such as a kite or postage stamp, that might be difficult to understand.

Every BINGO game has a winning card, so a player's chances of winning depend on the number of cards in the game and how many cards s/he is playing. For example, if a player has 12 cards in a game with 1200 cards, the chances of winning for that player is 1 in 100.

Nonetheless, keep in mind that no bingo strategy can promise a certain win, since bingo is largely a game of luck. Tippett's method simply offers a systematic approach that can add an extra element of fun and strategy to your bingo games.

Bingo is a game of chance and in any game that involves risk, there is a bit of luck and skill involved. While many may think the Bingo is pure luck and requires zero skill, it is a pure misconception.
