Abstract
The invention consists in a wagering game of the same kind as a bingo game characterized by the use of a set of game indicia (bingo balls) bearing the same identifications as the area identifications of the game card or cards. Furthermore, no additional game indicia bearing identification not borne by the game card are included in the set of game indicia. Furthermore, the invention consists in a method of playing said game wherein at least one player places a bet. Upon reception of said bet, the player is provided with at least one game card bearing area designations. Designations are drawn according to the rules of the game. Card areas are daubed based on a match between the drawn designations and card designations. At the end, the card is evaluated to determine whether it fulfills a winning criterion, with a prize being awarded in the case of a positive evaluation.
