Abstract: A method for playing a game of chance which is played for prizes includes cards bearing numbers or other designations. In such a game, a holder of the card covers numbers or other designations when objects, similarly numbered or designated, are drawn or electronically determined. The game is won by the first person covering a previously designated number of numbers or other designations on such cards wherein at least some of the numbers or other designations are selected by a player.

Abstract: Systems and methods for playing a game of chance include determining a winner based on the number of player indicia matching selected house indicia and continuing game play until at least one winner is determined. Embodiments include a fixed draw with prizes awarded to all players based on the number of player indicia matching house indicia, as well as a draw that continues until at least one player matches a predetermined number of house indicia. Embodiments include a player indicia selection device with available indicia arranged in rows having associated letters similar to a bingo flashboard. Player cards or tickets include at least some player indicia selectable by players, which may include players requesting an easy pick ticket with one or more randomly generated player indicia recorded at time of purchase.

Abstract: A system and method for playing a game of chance, either as a primary or secondary game offering, having a first winning criterion associated with matching player indicia on a player card to house indicia selected or otherwise determined by operator calls include awarding a first prize for every player card that satisfies the winning criterion after each operator call less than or equal to a first number of operator calls and awarding a subsequent prize for every player card that satisfies the same winning criterion after each call up to and including a second number of operator calls and continuing the game until at least all calls up to and including the second number of calls have been made.

Abstract: A system or method for providing a bingo game in which a pattern of player indicia on a player card is matched to house indicia selected during the game. The system or method includes providing a first player card of a plurality of player cards that each include a plurality of player indicia and a pattern that includes at least a portion of the player indicia, using a device to randomly select a plurality of house indicia, determining whether a triggering criterion is met during the bingo game, and awarding a prize for each player card that achieves a partial pattern match with the selected house indicia upon the determination that the triggering criterion has been met. The partial pattern match is achieved by matching the selected house indicia with a predetermined number of player indicia, but not all of the player indicia, within the pattern.
