As far as AM/PM is concerned, playing Internet bingo games at Bingo Cafe in the morning, noon, evening, or night, really makes no difference at all. Although, some Bingo Cafe players have said that the best days to gamble online have been during midweek, on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and not ever on Mondays. As for Saturday’s and Sunday’s, they remain divided.

Even though there is not a thread of physical evidence to back these viewpoints (on when is the best time to play online bingo), Internet bingo game operators like Bingo Cafe assure players that playing bingo on the Internet at any time, on any day, offers equal odds at winning bingo.

Daubing (or Auto-Playing) Your Numbers
Bingo Cafe’s bingo rooms let you decide whether you’d like to have the Bingo Cafe computer daub your cards automatically for you or daub your bingo card yourself manually (by using your mouse). Having the system for you will ensure you never forget to daub a number.

At Bingo Cafe, you can choose any of the bingo cards you purchased for autoplay functionality on the “Buy Cards” popup screen under the “AutoPlay” tab. Just hit the “Turn On” button and then select the cards you want to have daubed automatically. Also, you can switch off auto-playing anytime by removing the check-mark beside the card you selected for autoplay or by pressing the “Turn Off” button. Of course, you’ll still have the option to switch Autodaub back on anytime you so desire.

Whether you manually daub your numbers or you get the system to auto-daub for you, neither choice will alter the game outcome. If your bingo card is a winner, Bingo Cafe will award you the prize and/or jackpot – for sure!
