There were 32 winners!

There was no big winner. 32 winners, each got $20k. Names, locations and where tickets were purchased are all posted.

so have they released where the winners are from ?

3 from Brandon I see

actually there are 4 winners from Brandon.... and I see that one Kinsmen winner from Brandon has even won the Prairie Moutain Health 50/50 in Oct 2019!  
 
Wow.. talk about luck! Nice..

Does anyone else find it odd or improbable that the jackpot didn’t go for so many weeks with a lot of people playing and then 32 people win in 49 numbers.

Yeah, I kind of wondered about that too.....

You also have my vote on this ! Very strange !!!

did you bank your winnings like you said you would?

You betcha. She's all in the bank Johnny! Although I went out and bought some cannabis to celebrate so it's a little less

The money hasn’t even been paid to the winners yet, I call your bluff Jackson. And yes, I know this for a fact because we are related to one of the winners

Shhhhh.... Quiet I don't want people to know we are related.

Don't blow it all on smoke!

Close the kitchen window don't want you to smell that skunk

You should just stay in your home with all windows closed so you can enjoy skunk 24/7/365!

Little bit weird, but a province wide televised bingo game seems like something that'd be awfully hard to rig.

I agree pretty hard to rig. The increased amount of cards being printed more likely duplicate cards is the more logical explanation.

I heard the odds of winning a black out (under 50 balls) is 1 in 200,000 ……. so it does seem ODD

I don’t know what happened and I’m not a math whiz but I do know the odds of going from not even one winner in many, many weeks in a row with 50 numbers to getting 32 in one week in 49 numbers is astronomically high....as in so high it is basically unbelievable that something wasn’t up. Some kind of mistake in printing a lot of cards with the same numbers or some other kind of issue. Would be interesting for a true numbers person to calculate the odds.

Make sense that so many winners on 49 numbers called, which is almost unheard of. The fact that Kennedy was there in the studio ready to celebrate makes it even more suspicious. I won’t be playing again. Something is really wrong with this story.

I agree, she was there he had a suit on and their noise makers all ready. ....And not I’m sure without going back and looking but did it even show him drawing from the drum or was it just showing zoomed in on his hand the number....very Suspicious

And how hard it was to come  
By for a ticket and majority was online sales...yet there wasn’t one online sale winner... hmmm

There was an online ticket winner

the jackpot went Kathy Kennedy talked about Mark Morris being at the studio with his streamers and noisemakers ready, I wasn't suspicious.

What is really weird is the blackout has been won on the same ball “I 21” for three weeks in a row . What is the chances of that.

I find it weird too because they have not called a winner in months (under 50 balls) not even 1 person … and all of the sudden, boom 32 winners (under 50 balls) ???? It wouldn’t look suspicious if there was maybe a few winners but 32?? is awfully high. They need to explain

Perhaps these people would be interested in clearing up this mess !!!

You can play your cards after the bingo game is aired on YouTube and you have until Monday to call in your winning card, unless it’s a holiday then you have until Tuesday to call in. So if no one bingo’s on Saturday in 50 numbers or less during the live game then they keep calling numbers until someone wins the carry over. What happens if someone plays their cards say on Sunday and they find out they won in 50 numbers or less. Do the people who bingo’d on the carry over on Saturday still win? Or does the jackpot winner who played a day later trump the carry over winners?

Any true bingo player knows wins are not based on how many balls are called, but by which lines of balls were called. For example, in a 50 ball jackpot, if 10 Bs, 7 Is, 11 Ns, 14 Gs, and 8 Os are called, you are unlikely to get a bingo in 50 numbers whereas if 10 B, 10 I, 10 N, 10 G, and 10 Os are called, you are more likely to get a bingo in 50 numbers. It's all about the mix of numbers, not the quantity.  
 
Three weeks ago I went to bingo in a smaller town. The first two lines game went in 28 numbers with two winners. The next two lines game had 7 winners in 18 numbers....8 Bs and 6 Ns were called, the other 4 numbers were I and G. No Os were called.  
 
Also, quite a few more cards were sold the last draw versus the previous draw, and less cards were sold the week before, and less the week before that. So with that, you will have duplicate cards, different combinations, and more cards out there to win.  
 
Kinsmen Bingo is definitely not fixed.
