Bingo "Doubler" Tournaments

We are interested in your opinions about our recent Bingo Tournament.  We called it the "Doubler" because we double the pot every round.

Please complete the brief questionnaire to the right of this post.  Also, if you would like to make any comments (pro or con) about the tournament format, please send me an email.  You, of course, can send in anonymously.

Our goal is to create a bingo tournament format that is enjoyed by all.

Thank- you for playing on-line with us.

Upcoming Tournaments

Texas Holdem No Limit Poker:
April 7th at 8:00 pm we will have the finals for our Texas Holdem Poker Tournament. There will be 6 Satellite Qualifying Tournaments, and the top three places will qualify for the finals.  50,000 points will be won by the top 4 places at the final table on Saturday.

Check the poker lobby for dates and times.  Please do not play in a qualifier if you have already qualified for the tournament.  The Grand Winner of the tournament will get a $10.00 Walmart gift card from SBB in addition to the points.

Bingo "Doubler" Tournament:


We are trying something new.  We will play 6 qualifying bingo tournaments this week and the top 3 players will be eligible to play in the finals on Sunday at 10:00 pm. (Sorry so late, but we want to give land bingo players a chance to play in the finals also.)

We will play in the Tournament Room, and we will play the 30 minute "Doubler" format where the pot will double each 10 minutes.  This seems to be a popular format with the players since it provides the opportunity for everyone to still win up to the last game of the session.

The qualifiers will be played on the following dates and times:
           1. Tuesday at 10:00 pm
           2. Wednesday at 8:00 pm
           3. Thursday at Noon
           4. Friday at 10:00 pm
           5. Saturday at 9:00 am
           6. Sunday at 9:00 am

In the finals the pot prize will be 50,000 split 50% / 30% / 20%.  We will also take up to 5,000 point  wagers on winning and paying 18 to 1 odds.  The leaders of round 1 and round 2 will win 5,000 points each. A chance to win LOTS of points.

The Grand Winner of the final tournament will also win a $10 Walmart gift card from SBB.

SBB will send an email to all of the finalist with a password to get into the finals.

Please let me know what you think of our new bingo tournament format.

Unkind Players

I have received several emails dealing with players and their boorish behavior.  If you do not wish to see the chat of another player in a bingo room, you can "ignore" their chat by clicking on the player's name displayed in the upper right hand corner of the bingo screen. 

This will eliminate that player's chat appearing on your screen.

For all new players, I will again mention that I have NO way of determining when a player will get a bingo.  I cannot control what bingo balls are called during a bingo game.  I cannot control what cards a player receives.  It is all done automatically by the software.

One last warning to players that comment that Sir Bingo Bob is cheating.  If it continues, bingo jail is not an option, your account would be terminated.  For the life of me, I do not understand why anyone would continue to play if they think I am cheating.

Perhaps it is a "fleeting Utopian ideal" that I have about players being kind to each other, but I ask that you rejoice in each others' victories and console them in their losses.  By the way, this applies to more than just bingo!
