Bingo licensees may offer three number speed bingo games. "Three number speed bingo" means a bingo game where:

(1) Operators use a reduced number of balls and special bingo cards with three spaces; and

(2) Bingo numbers are called rapidly; and

(3) The price to play includes an ante, retained by the operator, and a wager that begins at three units and decreases by one for each number covered on a player's card; and

(4) An "ante" is the fee retained by the licensee which allows a patron to play three number speed bingo; and

(5) A "wager" is the total dollar value of chips used to cover the numbers on a player's card; and

(6) Players compete against all other players for a pool of prizes that varies according to the numbers covered by other players during the game.
