Winning on 1951 Bally Coney Island Bingo

Coney Island is bingo in it's most basic form.

3 card game with extra balls.

This was Bally's second wide release title after Bright Lights.

My strategy playing Coney Island is simple:

When I hit a 3 in line, I bet the won credits to win extra balls. Use the extra balls to hit more winning combinations and repeat.

Here's a look at the strategy p(L)aying out: 113 credits won! 11 credits wagered on extra balls for a total of 124 credits.

 
 
The game is currently for sale and a game-play demonstration video can be viewed here.

  1. There were so many books and videos made about "gambling systems" to try and "beat the casinos" that were obvious hokum to anyone who knew how casinos and slots operated.
    I love skill-gambling games like this where systems and strategy can actually be put into practice. r.i.p. one of the only cool forms of (man v machine) gambling
