A nationwide bingo prize was split 169 ways

More than 160 UK bingo players collected four-figure prizes during a busy Sunday of numbers game action.

More than 160 players shared a prize pool worth over £1 million during Sunday's National Bingo Game Platinum Game.

The special end of the month promotion offers the biggest prizes in the world of land-based bingo and has made three women millionaires this year.

However, organisers decided to share the wealth in August and the playoff prize was split between anyone who won their club's house prize in 55 calls or fewer.

That meant 169 numbers game enthusiasts went home £6,300 better off.

Steve Baldwin, communications manager for the National Bingo Game Association, was pleased to see so many people enjoying the prize.

"We have created three bingo millionaires in the last eight months and today the National Bingo Game has made a great many people very happy with substantial wins," he said.

Online bingo could soon have a millionaire to rival the lucky winners at land-based clubs, as PartyBingo is currently running a game with a £1 million prize.ADNFCR-1691-ID-18757374-ADNFCR
