Keno is a game of pure luck and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought to the US by Chinese expatriates in the 19th century. As with lotto games, it is a dead simple to play, and it is appealing as substantial prizes are available for very small bets. Keno is enjoyed at bars, clubs and recreation center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another similarity with lotto games – horrendous expectations.
Sensibly, Keno found its way into casinos on the internet as it was an easy game to develop, and casino operators wanted to ensnare the giant brick and mortar Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favor of casinos on the internet was that many gamblers were used to gambling on Keno on electronic screens, so the move online was less of a encumbrance than say with vingt-et-un.
So here is how you enjoy Keno. You begin by choosing between 4 and ten numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each choice is describe as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase multiple tickets for the same draw, and in some games you can even pre-order for upcoming games.
Once you have submitted your choices, 20 balls with numbers will "enter" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your numbers are selected, you win. That simple. You will obviously gain more, if more of your numbers hit, like with lotteries.
Most keno internet games allow you to buy cards between 5c and $5, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot fortunes of up to 50,000 dollars are not uncommon.
Simple? Yeah. So there should be a problem? Yeah. The casino edge with Keno is thirty percent or higher, the WORST of any internet casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big shot the worst game you might possibly gamble on. If you are wanting a game of speculation bet on slots.
