Think For a Long Time Prior to Playing Keno

[ English ]

Keno is a game of pure randomness and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought to the US of A by Chinese immigrants in the 19th aeon. As with lotto games, it is a dead easy to play, and it is enjoyable as big jackpots are available for very little wagers. Keno is played at bars, clubs and community centers all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lottery games – terrible expectations.

Logically, Keno found its way into internet casinos as it was an easy game to build, and internet casino software operators wanted to entice the giant land based Keno fan base online. What was even more in the favor of internet casinos was that many gamblers were accustomed to gambling on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move on to the internet was a insignificant hurdle than say with twenty-one.

So here is how you play Keno. You begin by choosing between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can buy multiple cards for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre-order for future games.

Once you have submitted your choices, 20 numbered balls will "enter" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your spots are picked, you win. It’s that easy. You will obviously earn more, if more of your spots appear, like with lottos.

Most internet keno games allow you to purchase cards between five cents and $5, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot fortunes of up to 50 000 dollars are not uncommon.

Simple? Yes. So there has to be a problem? Absolutely. The casino advantage with Keno is 30 percent or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big margin the atrocious game you could possibly gamble on. If you want a game of luck play slot machines.
