Keno Strategies That Will Help You Win
It will not commonly be seen as the funnest game in the world of betting, but keno has massive amounts of keen followers. And it should! It’s a consistently exciting lottery-like game that’s simple to play, abundantly available in tons of different formats, and one that can return millions of dollars for gamblers who learn its innumerable subtle nuances. But let’s deal with the beginner’s rules here.
When describing keno to novices, some gambling experts compare it to lotto. This is at least to some extent apt, in that both games are basically numerical. Yet to take that comparison too far is likely to be to downplay the innumerable unique aspect that make keno so fun. Unlike bingo, keno players have the power to choose the numbers for every card.
Keno cards have a total of eighty numbers, but the gambler is given an additional level of personal responsibility by being able to determine as numerous (or as few) numbers as he needs. And it doesn’t take a super genius to figure out how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark each of your selected numbers with a ordinaryball point pen like you used back in the day.
Now that you’ve selected your numbers, carry your card back to the keno pit manager at the keno stand. The keno pit manager will record your numbers and then hand you a receipt. Do not lose this (potentially) valuable piece of paper! Even if the clerk remembers you and would like to help out, without a winning ticket with you, you will get precisely $.00 for your winning card.
OK, so there you have strategy #1: always be sure to keep your keno slip. Let’s move to something a little more useful, what do you think?
After you’ve selected your numbers, get yourself into a comfy keno booth and observe the action unfold on a video monitor. That is where the winning numbers are displayed for us. If you checked winners, mark your card appropriately. Make sure not to take your time, or sit there praising yourself for an obnoxious length of time. You need to get back to the keno stand to get your winnings, and a new keno game will probably begin within 5 minutes.
Strategy #2: always be sure to get back to the keno booth on time!
Assuming you can not trust yourself to beat that five-minute deadline each and every time, you always have the option of using a "multi-race" card. These include the very same set of your selected numbers on anywhere from two to 20 tickets. When the maximum number of games (matching the number of tickets) is played out, you will then be able to get off your lazy bum and go collect your winnings.
Yet another alternative is known as a "stray and play" keno card, which usually allows you make number picks for 30 rounds or more. Heck, you can take an ocean cruise and not have to get uptight about getting back in time to redeem your winnings. Most "stray and play" game tickets are good for up to a whole year after you purchase it!
So now you know a few indispensable strategies for winning keno. If you are a skillful user, they might appear to be very obvious. However, it doesn’t hurt to brush up on the basic tactics, and if you are a newbie gambler, every tiny bit of advice will help make your keno experience more fun.
