Think Long And Hard Before You Wager on Keno

[ English ]

Keno is a game of pure speculation and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought to the US of A by Chinese newcomers in the nineteenth century. As with lottery games, it’s a dead simple to play, and it is enjoyable as substantial fortunes are available for very little bets. Keno is enjoyed at saloons, clubs and community centers all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lottery games – terrible odds.

Logically, Keno ensconced its way into internet casinos as it was an easy game to create, and casino software owners wanted to capture the huge brick and mortar Keno players online. What was even more in the favor of online casinos was that many players were used to betting on Keno on electronic screens, so the move on to the internet was hardly a problem than say with blackjack.

So here is how you play Keno. You begin by selecting between four and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each choice is describe as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase countless tickets for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre purchase for games in the future.

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

Most keno internet games allow you to purchase tickets between 5 cents and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot fortunes of up to $50,000 are not uncommon.

Simple? Yeah. So there has to be a catch? Yeah. The gambling casino advantage with Keno is thirty percent or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a big shot the awful game you might possibly bet on. If you are wanting a game of luck bet on slots.
