Think Carefully Before You Wager on Keno

Keno is a game of pure luck and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought over to the US by Chinese immigrants in the 19th aeon. As with lottery games, it is a dead easy to play, and it is appealing as big prizes are available for very little bets. Keno is played at bars, clubs and civic center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lotto games – horrendous odds.

By reason, Keno hit upon its way into online casinos as it was an easy game to develop, and internet casino software operators wanted to benefit from the large brick and mortar Keno players online. What was even more in the favor of casinos on the internet was that many people were accustomed to playing Keno on video screens, so the move online was a insignificant encumbrance than say with vingt-et-un.

So here is how you play Keno. You begin by selecting between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is referred to as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy countless cards for the same draw, and in a handful games you can even pre-buy for upcoming games.

After you have submitted your selection, twenty balls with numbers will "drop" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your numbers are selected, you win. That simple. You will obviously win more, if more of your numbers surface, like with lotteries.

Most internet keno 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 dollars are not uncommon.

Simple? Absolutely. So there should be a catch? Yes. The gambling casino advantage with Keno is thirty percent or higher, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of landing on a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a big margin the awful game you could possibly play. If you want a game of luck bet on slot machines.
