Think Carefully Prior to Playing Keno

[ English | Deutsch | Español | Français | Italiano ]

Keno is a game of pure randomness and is very close to Lotto games. The game was brought to the the states by Chinese newcomers in the nineteenth century. As with lottery games, it is a very simple to enjoy, and it is attractive as substantial prizes are offered for very tiny wagers. Keno is enjoyed at taverns, clubs and recreation center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lottery games – horrid odds.

By reason, Keno found its way into internet casinos as it was a simple game to build, and internet casino software operators wanted to entice the huge land based Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favor 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 barrier than say with 21.

So here is how you play Keno. You start off by choosing between four and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each choice is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase multiple cards for the same draw, and in a few games you can even pre-buy for upcoming games.

After you have submitted your selection, twenty numbered balls will "enter" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your numbers are selected, you win. It is that easy. You will obviously win more, if more of your spots appear, like with lottos.

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

Easy? Yeah. So there has to be a catch? Absolutely. The gambling casino advantage with Keno is thirty percent or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The chances of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a big margin the worst game you might possibly play. If you are seeking a game of chance gamble on slots.
