Ponder Carefully Before You Gamble on Keno

[ English ]

Keno is a game of pure speculation and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought over to the U.S.A by Chinese expatriates in the 19th aeon. As with lotto games, it is a very simple to enjoy, and it is enchanting as large prizes are available for very small bets. Keno is enjoyed at taverns, clubs and community centers all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another similarity with lotto games – horrible odds.

Understandably, Keno hit upon its way into casinos on the internet as it was an easy game to establish, and casino operators wanted to entice the large brick and mortar Keno players online. What was even more in the favor of casinos on the internet was that many players were used to wagering on Keno on electronic screens, so the move online was less of a problem than say with vingt-et-un.

So here is how you play Keno. You start off by selecting between four and 10 numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is referred to as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase different cards for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre-order for future games.

Once you have submitted your selection, 20 balls with numbers will "drop" into a capsule from a barrel. If enough of your spots are drawn, you win. That is all there is. You will obviously gain more, if more of your spots come up, like with lotteries.

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

Simple? Yes. So there should be a catch? Yes. The gambling casino edge with Keno is 30 percent or higher, the WORST of any internet casino game. The chances of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a big margin the worst game you can possibly play. If you are looking for a game of speculation wager on slot machines.
