Parlay Bonus Slots?

[Feelin froggy]

I was playing at Vic's Bingo last night and I noticed the bonus slots. They had regular Get Crackin and Get Crackin Bonus. There are bonus slots for Hollywood Reels and Trolling for Treasure too. I wondered what's with the bonus version?

I launched both slots and stared at them for a while. All was the exactly same except for a slight difference in my credits. I just couldn't imagine what the difference was and why I had less credits on one slot. I went to bed and went back there this morning and it hit me! Duh one may be played with bonus money and one must be played with cash. OMG! I felt like I created one of the most idiotic moments in bingo history and I had to share it with my LBB friends.

The great mystery had been solved. Have you had any really "dumb" bingo moments?

The dumbest thing I do is make the screens too small to read well, and accidentally max out on a 35 cent per card game thinking it's the free one.  Wipes out my cash every time.  grrrrr

lol chilly. For some reason the side of my brain that is good at math shuts off when I play bingo. I see card prices and have no idea how much I'm going to spend. I just hit quick buy and get the max. That's a big no no when the cards are $1 each. And sometimes I'm too busy looking at the prizes that I don't notice the price per card and wipe out my balance.

the other way i feel stupid at bingo is the darn time zone differences.  i just can't seem to remember what hour I am supposed to be playing and am always late or early.

lol yep I've done that too. EST, CST, BST it's all a lot of BS to me.

I often pay for tickets more than the prizes in a game are.   I can't believe that sometimes I don't pay the minumum attention to what I am doing.

lmaooo I have done that millions of times Markotik. I hope that more people will get in the game but they don't and I'm left with a prize that doesn't cover the cost of my tickets. Plus I lose to make matters worse.

Sometimes all we need to do is sleep on it and it hits us like 75 bingo balls coming at us at once. You are not dumb froggy just momentarily dazed and confused.

Has this happened to you - you are losing losing losing.  You go take a bathroom break and come back and - what's this??? did I win?

Sometimes it seems that I win more by not watching the cards like a hawk or screaming at the computer screen.  53!!!! No! not 35.  dang it, 53!!! No, not 63, 53!!!!  52??? Are you kidding me!#$T%%$&E%*

They always call every number around the one I need. Drives me crazy. I have walked away once or twice and won and even pre-bought my cards and won. The raise in blood pressure is fun though.

This pretty much describes me while playing bingo. I can't stop laughing.

We are in good company.  I *know* they are teasing me!  Rat finks, most of the time.  Except when I win.  lol
