30-Ball Bingo is a bingo-based game. It's a simple bingo game with 30 balls that are played
on a three by three card. The player competes against the game rather than other players and
is compensated for covering the highest paying pattern on each card.
Rules of
30-Ball Bingo
- The player must first decide how many cards to play (1:100), how much to bet per card (10¢ - $1), and how many balls to draw (20, 22,24).
- The total amount of money wagered cannot exceed $50.
- The game is played on three-by-three bingo cards, each with nine numbers ranging from 1 to 30.
- The number of bingo balls specified by the player will be chosen at random by the game.
- The way to win is to get a coverall, which pays out based on the number of balls in the
draw:
- 20 balls pay 80
- 22 balls pay 27
- 24 balls pay 10
For a 20-, 22-, and 24-ball draw, the following three tables provide the probability and return for all potential outcomes (winning and losing).
