Knowing the patterns does not only ensure that you will be able to identify the numbers on your card faster, but that you do not miss randomly called numbers as well. In the following article you will find out the most common patterns employed in online and offline bingo.

The pattern implies achieving a horizontal, vertical or diagonal 5-number line by using both numbers and the free space in the N column.

Letter X

Double cross

As its name suggest, the pattern implies covering all the numbers in the N column along with the middle numbers in the columns I and G.

Large diamond

In order to create a large diamond pattern you will need to get matching numbers for the digits surrounding the middle numbers in columns G and I, the middle figures from the O and B columns as well as the top and bottom digits on the N column.

Postage stamp

The postage stamp pattern implies covering a segment of four numbers in any corner of the bingo card. It is necessary to mention that in some bingo parlors, the design could comprise of double and even triple postage stamps.

Picnic table

The design implies creating a letter X pattern and also covering the top and bottom lines on the bingo card.

For this pattern you do not need to get a match with the numbers in the B and O columns.

Blackout

Also dubbed coverall, the pattern implies covering your entire bingo card and is mostly used in games with high prizes.

Hardway bingo

Your aim here is to get a 5-number line without using the free space in the N column. The streak can be a diagonal, vertical or horizontal line.
