Think For a Long Time Before You Gamble on Keno

Keno is a game of pure luck and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought to the US of A by Chinese immigrants in the nineteenth century. As with lotto games, it is a very easy to play, and it is enchanting as substantial prizes are offered for very tiny wagers. Keno is enjoyed at bars, clubs and civic center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lotto games – horrid expectations.

By reason, Keno ensconced its way into online casinos as it was a simple game to build, and internet casino software owners wanted to benefit from the huge brick and mortar Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favour of internet casinos was that many players were accustomed to gambling on Keno on electronic screens, so the move on to the internet was less of a encumbrance than say with chemin de fer.

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

Once you have submitted your choices, twenty numbered balls will "drop" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your numbers are picked, you win. That simple. You will obviously win more, if more of your numbers are landed on, 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 ticket value. Jackpot prizes of up to 50 000 dollars are not uncommon.

Simple? Absolutely. So there has to be a problem? Yes. The house edge with Keno is 30 percent or higher, the WORST of any online casino game. The chances of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a long margin the worst game you can possibly play. If you are wanting a game of speculation gamble on slot machines.
