First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for adapting a game of bingo to a lottery, comprising:
- predetermining a plurality of bingo faces to achieve a desired liability profile, wherein the predetermination is conducted free of player influence;
distributing one or more of the plurality of bingo faces;
generating random call numbers until a desired pattern is achieved on one or more of the distributed bingo faces; and
wherein the step of predetermining a plurality of bingo faces to achieve a desired liability profile comprises using genetic programming to generate the plurality of bingo faces by;
randomly generating a plurality of potential bingo cards;
determining the potential liability of the plurality of potential bingo cards; and
evolving the plurality of potential bingo cards via reproducing, crossing over, mutating, or architecture-altering until a desired potential liability for the plurality of potential bingo cards is achieved.
