In Panama, mobile casinos featuring bingo typically follow the traditional rules, similar to those used in the United States. To start a game of bingo, each player must buy a minimum amount of tickets. The number of cards varies from casino to casino, but the minimum number is usually 3. Each card contains a 5Ć5 grid with a Free Space, a space in the center that is free for all players. The grid is then filled with 24 random numbers plus the free space, ranging from 1 to 75.
Next, a host will typically call out 28 numbers randomly. As the numbers are called, players must mark off the numbers in their cards. If a player has all five numbers in the same row or column, they have a bingo. The first player to āBlack Outā all 25 numbers and call out ābingoā is the winner.
