Abstract
An electronic device for managing at least two bingo cards. The device has stored standard card configurations which correspond to physical cards which have been selected by a player. Also stored are standard winning patterns. The processor compares "called" numbers with card configurations which correspond to the physical cards being played by the user. The device alerts the player when a winning card occurs. When "padded" paper cards are used, the device generates each succeeding game board.
