Think Carefully Before You Wager on Keno

[ English ]

Keno is a game of pure luck and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought to the USA by Chinese expatriates in the 19th aeon. As with lotto games, it is a very simple to enjoy, and it is enchanting as large jackpots are available for very tiny bets. Keno is enjoyed at saloons, clubs and civic center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lottery games – terrible expectations.

Logically, Keno ensconced its way into internet casinos as it was an easy game to develop, and casino software owners wanted to capture the big brick and mortar Keno fan base online. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many gamblers were accustomed to playing Keno on electronic screens, so the move online was a insignificant encumbrance than say with 21.

So here is how you play Keno. You begin by appointing between four and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase many tickets for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre-buy for games in the future.

Once you have submitted your selection, twenty numbered balls will "drop" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. It’s that easy. You will obviously amass more, if more of your numbers are landed on, like with lotteries.

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

Simple? Yeah. So there has to be a catch? Absolutely. The casino advantage with Keno is 30 percent or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a long margin the worst game you could possibly play. If you are wanting a game of speculation bet on slot machines.
