  • Question
    Can playing card bingo be played by a large group of people? Say 30 or even 85?
    Community Answer
    No, because there are only 52 cards per deck.
  • Question
    Is there a variation for 20 players?
    Community Answer
    Shuffle 2 decks together and deal 5 cards to each of the 20 players. You will have 4 cards leftover (put these aside). Use a new deck for your dealer deck. Shuffle and turn one card over at a time, calling out the suit and card.
  • Question
    How would I organize a game for a group of 30 or more people?
    Community Answer
    Set up tables of 4 people, with one deck of cards per table. Deal out all cards as usual, 13 per player. There would then be a caller (who does not play), who pulls the cards and announces and shows card to all. Note: usually call an ace a 'one' to avoid confusion between 'ace' and 'eight'. You could have multiple winners.
  • Question
    How many cards should there be if there are two or three players?

    For three players, deal out four hands. One hand then becomes dead, then the remaining 3 players play as they would for four. One player being the caller.

    Can card bingo be played by 2 people only? If so, how many cards should be dealt?

    It can be up to you and the other person how many cards should be dealt. But I would say probably 2 if you want a normal paced game. 3 or more if you want a quick game. And 1 if you want to play a longer game.
