Hi
How many cards maximum can you play? I haven't played on line yet but shall be following a link Manne provided. Years ago I used to play Bingo in a local club and the most I could play was the 6 cards to cover 1-90. I hear that some people can actually play more though?

I cannot play with more than 4 cards at a time. More than that - and I begin to flounder around looking for numbers.
It is not easy playing with 6 cards at a time, how do you manage to keep yourself organised ?

The thing with playing 6 cards is that you know that each time the caller calls then you have a number somewhere. If you only have 4 cards then you may miss a number thinking you didn't have it but at the end find you did.

A lot of online sites now offer a small counter to let you see how long until the next number is going to be called so you can judge better how many cards you can handle. In halls of course you need to visit a few times to get to know the way the caller calls. They tend to be very similar and fair to all. I would always take 6 so that I knew it would be one number each time. Just personal preference though.

I think the less gizmos the better. I would rather just concentrate on the numbers than be looking at a counter as well to show when a call is going to be made.

I like to play with 6 cards just to make sure I don't miss a number. I think after a little experience you soon get used to playing 6 cards. It may sound a lot but really it isn't as you know that once you have daubed your number that is it. If you haven't daubed a number you know you have a problem!

The maximum i have played is 5 cards , you get so less time to cut out the number when the caller calls the number that you surely miss some numbers in game

Yes, thats why I never make a win when I played with 6 cards. But my luck gives me company when playing 4 cards.
