According to the Wiki, Byte[] has a Shuffle method. But, when I try to run your code, I get:
"Unknown symbol 'Shuffle' in class 'Byte[]'" Same thing on the Gambas Playground: http://gambas.one/playground/ultra.php

Other than that, I think your use of the shuffle method would be a correct use. Although, you should be able to simply use:

iPull = aBingo.Extract(aBingo.Max)

instead of:

iPull = aBingo[aBingo.Max]
aBingo.Resize(aBingo.Max - 1)
