Think For a Long Time Prior to Playing Keno

Keno is a game of pure chance and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought to the America by Chinese immigrants in the nineteenth century. As with lotto games, it is a very easy to play, and it is appealing as substantial jackpots are available for very tiny bets. Keno is played at bars, clubs and community centers all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lotto games – horrible odds.

Understandably, Keno found its way into internet casinos as it was an easy game to build, and casino owners wanted to catch the huge brick and mortar Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favor of internet casinos was that many gamblers were accustomed to playing Keno on electronic terminals, so the move on to the internet was a insignificant encumbrance than say with chemin de fer.

So here is how you play Keno. You start off by choosing between four and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can buy countless tickets for the same draw, and in a handful games you can even pre-buy for upcoming games.

Once you have submitted your selection, 20 numbered balls will "drop" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your numbers are picked, you win. That simple. You will obviously win more, if more of your numbers come up, like with lotteries.

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

Simple? Yes. So there must be a problem? Absolutely. The gambling casino edge with Keno is 30 percent or higher, the WORST of any internet casino game. The odds of landing on a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a wide margin the worst game you might possibly wager on. If you are seeking a game of chance wager on slot machines.
