Ponder Long And Hard Before You Play Keno

Keno is a game of pure randomness and is very close to Lotto games. The game was brought over to the USA by Chinese immigrants in the nineteenth aeon. As with lotto games, it is a dead easy to enjoy, and it is appealing as large prizes are offered for very little wagers. Keno is played at bars, clubs and rec center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lotto games – horrid expectations.

Logically, Keno happen upon its way into casinos on the internet as it was a simple game to build, and casino software owners wanted to capture the huge land based Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favour of casinos on the internet was that many people were accustomed to wagering on Keno on video screens, so the move on to the internet was a insignificant barrier than say with blackjack.

So here is how you enjoy Keno. You start off by choosing between 4 and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy different tickets for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre-buy for games in the future.

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

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

Simple? Yeah. So there should be a problem? Yeah. The casino edge with Keno is 30 percent or more, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a wide shot the worst game you might possibly bet on. If you are seeking a game of speculation wager on slot machines.
