Keno Tactics That Win

It will not usually be thought of as the funnest game in the world of betting, but keno has millions of passionate followers. Why wouldn’t it? It’s a routinely entertaining lotto-like game that’s a snap to learn, abundantly available in a number of different styles, and one that can return millions for players who master its many subtle intricacies. But let’s deal with the beginner’s rules here.

When defining keno to novices, some wagering connoisseurs compare it to the lottery. This is at least partly correct, in that both games are basically numerical. But to take that comparison too far would be to downplay the great many unique aspect that make keno so entertaining. Unlike bingo, keno gamblers have the ability to choose the numbers for every card.

Keno cards have a grand total of eighty numbers, but the user is granted an extra level of personal responsibility by being able to pick as many (or as few) numbers as she thinks is appropriate. And it doesn’t take a genius to figure out how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark all of your chosen numbers with a every day oldball point pen like you used when you were in third grade.

After you’ve picked your numbers, take your game card back to the girl at the keno booth. The nice person will record those numbers and then hand you a receipt. Do not lose this (potentially) valuable piece of paper! Even if the clerk remembers your mug and wants help out, without a winning receipt on you, you will win precisely $.00 for your time spent.

And there you have strategy number one: always be sure to keep your keno slip. Let us move to something a bit more complicated, shall we?

Now that you’ve picked your numbers, get into a comfortable keno booth and see the action happen on the big keno monitor. That’s where the winning numbers are displayed for us. If you checked winning numbers, mark your card accordingly. Be sure not to move to slowly, or sit there congratulating yourself for an obnoxious length of time. You must get back to the keno booth to redeem your winnings, and a new drawing will surely get going within a few minutes.

Strategy #2: always get back to the keno booth on time!

Since you can not trust yourself to meet that 5 minute deadline every time, you always have the option of buying a "multi-race" card. These include the self same set of your selected numbers on anywhere from 2 to twenty slips. When the maximum amount of keno games (matching the amount of tickets) is played out, you can then get off your lazy rump and go retrieve your winnings.

Yet an additional opportunity is known as a "stray and play" keno ticket, which commonly allows you make number picks for 30 keno rounds or more. Hell, you can take a world tour and not have to fret about getting back in time to retrieve your winnings. Most "stray and play" game tickets are good for up to a whole year after purchase!

So now you have learned a couple necessary schemes for winning keno. If you are an advanced keno player, they might seem quite obvious. But it will never hurt to brush up on the basic methods, and if you are a newbie keno player, every tiny bit of direction will help make your keno betting more fun.
