| 1. Beano. "Beano" means a specific kind of group game of |
chance, regardless of whether such a game is characterized by |
another name. Wherever the term "beano" is used, the word "bingo" |
or any other word used to characterize such a game may be |
interchanged. In "beano," each participant is given or sold one |
or more tally cards, so-called, each of which contains preprinted |
numbers or letters and may or may not be arranged in vertical or |
horizontal rows. The participant covers or marks the numbers or |
letters as objects similarly numbered or lettered are drawn from |
a receptacle and the winner or winners are determined by the |
sequence in which those objects are drawn. The manner in which |
the winner is determined must be clearly announced or displayed |
before any game is begun. Until July 1, 1994, a game described |
in this subsection is "beano" and a licensee may conduct such a |
game regardless of whether the manner of determining the winner |
is specifically described as a permissible manner of determining |
the winner in rules adopted by the Chief of State Police |
commission. |
