There are various types of bingo. The UK and US bingos share much in common such as each player having cards with 15 numbers in play. The caller calls the numbers one by one and the players mark them off accordingly. US and Canadian Bingo does however contain certain variations. Instead of 15, there are 25 numbers and five columns.
