When Platinum Play Bingo player ‘barb40′ submitted her chosen Bingo Ball for Life number, she was not to know that just 6 minutes later she would become the second player to hit this impressive jackpot. She won the bingo game in play for a full-house prize of 10.64 PLUS an incredible 1 000 Bingo Ball for Life jackpot. She hit the full house on her chosen lucky number 8, in 69 calls.

Bingo Ball for Life is an exciting innovation from Platinum Play Bingo, allowing players to own their very own lucky bingo number and even customise their own bingo ball with a chance of winning as much as 50 000 in cash.
The Jackpot started off at 1 000 in week one, and since it was not won in the first week, an additional 1 000 was added to the pool. ‘Xnikkixmk’ was first to hit that Jackpot when her lucky number 47 was the last number called to complete her full house win, she banked 2 000. ‘Barb40′ is the second lucky player to strike it rich.

The prize-pool again sits at 1,000 and will remain at 1 000 for the week, if it is not hit the pool will be increased by another 1 000. Up to 50 000 in cash can be won; and should the prize-pool reach 50 000 without being won, it will be paid out to those that came the closest and then start over.

Online bingo is enjoying a boom in the UK at the moment. In fact it is having the same kind of rise to fame that online poker enjoyed a few years ago when it became seriously mainstream, when websites started to offer the opportunity to play online, with TV shows and even greater prize money popping up everywhere.

Bingo is going through the same revival for a number of reasons; Not only has the smoking ban detracted the appeal of visiting bingo halls, but bingo games are taxed twice by the UK government. As well as gaming tax, bingo is also faced with VAT and is the only gaming market that suffers this double indignity.

Online bingo had already begun to make its mark before these factors were set in place. UK based bingo websites, which are increasing in stature and number, report huge profits and are still able to offer the kind of jackpots that would normally be associated with bingo’s rivals, poker and casino games.

One of the great things about Sunset Strip Bingois that they always have special promotions and deals to keep you interested. Some are one off deals while others are regular offers. Below some of the latest offers from Sunset Strip Bingo.

Early Bird Special

A daily early bird special is available between 6am and 7am. This is available in the rooms. Double bonuses are available during this period. So if you are up early in the US or later if you are in the UK then stop by for an hour of specials.
