What does Level 1 and Level 2 mean?

Level 1 is Full Pay. Level 2 is Half Pay. This means that if a bingo pot is $100 and you win on Level 1, you win the full $100 minus 5% taxes. If you win on Level 2, you win $50 minus 5% taxes. In the event of multiple bingos, the pot is split first by the number of players for Level 1 wins and then split in half on Level 2 wins. Each card is marked on the computers as Level 1 or Level 2. Paper is Level 1 unless a kid pack is being played and those are Level 2.
