There are many sites online today that offer a selection of progressive jackpots, one of the most popular jackpot offerings on the Internet. Each game a percentage of the money spent on tickets is taken to increase the jackpot and often they reach quite impressive amounts. Tidy Bingo is one such brand offering this type of jackpot and earlier today one of their players cleaned up netting herself a jackpot of £1,639.94.
You could be forgiven for thinking that winning this amount of money would require a big spend, but that wasn’t the case for Tidy Bingo player ‘verytidyme’. She purchased 48 tickets for a 10p game in the Golden Balls Room and won the game in 24 calls on the number 1.
The starting point for the progressive jackpot at Tidy Bingo is £50 so obviously it had been growing quite some time to reach £1,600. This was the 75 ball progressive jackpot, a prize that is won by calling in a certain number of calls or less. In the 75 ball rooms the amount of calls required varies from pattern to pattern but for the Airplane (aeroplane) pattern ‘verytidyme’ was actually ten calls lower than the 34 required to scoop the big money prize.
Although Tidy Bingo has only been open since 21st August this year it seems to have hit the ground running and certainly has plenty of appeal to the player. Their blog tells the story of many a winner on the networked jackpot games, could it be that the brand is looking to be named luckiest on the network?
