    Laban o Bawi is a signature Eat Bulaga! segment that became popular because it was one of the first segments to give out 1 million pesos as its jackpot prize. It also became popular because of the performances of its in-house dancers, the SexBomb Girls, and their famous chants during the jackpot round. The segment is divided into two parts: the elimination round and the jackpot round.

    The elimination round has had various formats throughout the years. In the original format, contestants press a buzzer to answer the hosts' simple question. The first contestant to give the correct answer will move on to the next cycle of questioning where he or she will compete with other contestants who answered correctly. The cycle of questioning continues until only one contestant remains to play the jackpot round. Sometime after the departure of the SexBomb Girls from the show, the format of the elimination round was changed to slightly resemble the format of the game show Wheel of Fortune. The contestants are given a blank word puzzle with only two letters given. The contestants must guess the word from the three clues that the hosts will give. The contestants are given five seconds to give a response for each clue given. The winning contestants will go through a cycle of questioning until only one remains. In the 2014 revival of the segment, only one question is asked per contestant. In a pool of contestants, five lucky contestants will be asked a question and will be able pick one of the five gift boxes that the Eat Bulaga! hosts are holding. The hosts will open their gift boxes and reveal the different prizes that the contestants will receive. The lucky contestant who picks the box that holds the key to the jackpot round wins.

    The jackpot round has remained the same throughout the years. In the jackpot round, the contestant is presented with seven boxes placed side by side. Each box represents a particular numerical place value; the leftmost box represents the millions place, while the rightmost box represents the ones place. Hidden inside the boxes is either a "1" or a "0". The goal of the game is to pick the box that contains the number "1" and place it in the millions place so the seven boxes combined would read 1000000, which means that the player has won the highest possible jackpot prize of 1 million pesos. If the box that contains the number "1" is placed in any other position, then the player wins the cash amount that the place value represents (0001000 = 1000 pesos or 0000001 = 1 peso). There is already a number "0" in the hundred-thousands place in order to allow the host to make cash offers lower than one hundred thousand pesos. Throughout the jackpot round, the host makes a cash offer that would make the player think if he’ll go through with the game (Laban) or withdraw with the offer (Bawi).
