Harrogate Luckiest UK Bingo Town

Posted on December 9th, 2009

Bingo is one of the few games of pure chance. While poker and blackjack players have some control over the outcome of the game the very nature of bingo makes controlling the outcome impossibility. Despite that fact most bingo players believe they can determine the outcome of the game through various talismans and superstitions. Most avid bingo players will tell you that you can make your own luck. For some bingo players rituals such as walking around their chair three times will somehow bring them luck. The numbers of rituals are as varied as the bingo players themselves.

Many bingo players have various superstitions that involve the use of ‘lucky’ objects and charms. These objects can include such items as lucky clothing, shoes and other articles of clothing. Some players have ‘lucky’ days and times to play bingo when they think their luck will be at its height. Other players have lucky numbers and others believe that the presence of certain friends at the game will influence their luck. The use of lucky charms and talismans are as varies as the players themselves. Some will bring a picture of a favorite relative of pet in an attempt to influence the game. Others bring special daubers, lighters, dolls, teddy bears, gemstones and birthstones in the sincere belief that these objects will bring them luck.

Is there any such thing as bingo luck? A recent report by Mecca bingo says that some areas of the UK are luckier than others. Mecca carries out a survey to determine the luckiest bingo city in the UK. The survey covered both internet bingo and land based bingo.
