Think Long And Hard Before You Gamble on Keno

Keno is a game of pure speculation and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought over to the US of A by Chinese immigrants in the 19th aeon. As with lottery games, it is a very simple to enjoy, and it is enjoyable as large fortunes are offered for very little wagers. Keno is enjoyed at taverns, clubs and civic center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lottery games – terrible expectations.

Understandably, Keno ensconced its way into online casinos as it was a simple game to establish, and online casino software operators wanted to entice the giant brick and mortar Keno fan base online. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many players were used to betting on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move on to the internet was hardly a problem than say with 21.

So here is how you enjoy Keno. You begin by selecting between 4 and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each choice is describe as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase many cards for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre purchase for future games.

Once you have submitted your choices, twenty balls with numbers will "enter" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your spots are selected, you win. That simple. You will obviously win more, if more of your spots hit, like with lottos.

Most keno online games allow you to buy cards between five cents and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot prizes of up to $50,000 are not uncommon.

Easy? Absolutely. So there has to be a problem? Absolutely. The house edge with Keno is thirty percent or greater, the WORST of any internet casino game. The expectation of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a wide margin the atrocious game you can possibly wager on. If you want a game of speculation gamble on slots.
