It will not ordinarily be looked at as the sexiest game in the arena of betting, but keno has millions and millions of devoted followers. As well it should! It’s a routinely thrilling lotto-esque game that’s easy to pickup, readily available in lots of assorted variations, and one that will return millions for players who learn its limitless subtle nuances. But let’s begin with the basic rules here.
When describing keno to beginners, some gambling masters compare it to lotto. This is at least to some extent correct, in that each game is generally numerical. But to take that comparison too far would be to discount the good many unique characteristics that make keno so fun. Not like bingo, keno users have the power to choose the numbers for every card.
Keno cards have a grand total of eighty numbers, but the gambler is given an extra level of personal responsibility by being able to choose as many (or as few) numbers as he wants. And it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to come up with how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark all your selected numbers with a standardpen like you used when you were in school.
Now that you have picked your numbers, take your card back to the person at the keno booth. The nice person will record those numbers and then hand you a receipt. Make sure no to drop this (potentially) expensive bit of paper! Even if the clerk remembers your mug and wants help out, without a winning ticket on you, you will get exactly $.00 for your time spent.
Now there you have strategy numero uno: always take care to keep your keno receipt. Let us get on to something a little more useful, shall we?
Once you’ve selected your numbers, get into a nice keno booth and observe the action unfold on a big video monitor. That is where the winning numbers are shown in lights. If you selected winning numbers, mark your card accordingly. Be sure not to drag your feet, or sit there praising yourself for too great a length of time. You want to get up to the keno booth to collect your winnings, since a new keno game will probably get going within 5 minutes.
Strategy number two: always make sure to get back to the keno stand on time!
Assuming you can’t trust yourself to make that five-minute deadline each time, you always retain the option of using a "multi-race" ticket. These include the self same set of your desired numbers on anywhere from two to twenty tickets. When the max amount of keno games (matching the number of tickets) is completed, you should then get off your lazy bum and go retrieve your winnings.
Yet another opportunity is known as a "stray and play" keno slip, which usually allows you make number picks for 30 keno games or more. Golly, you can take vacation to Italy and not have to fret about getting back in time to redeem your winnings. Most "stray and play" game tickets are good for up to a whole year after it’s bought!
So now you have learned a couple of required methods for winning keno. If you are a discerning keno player, they may seem to be stupidly obvious. Still, it doesn’t hurt to study up on the basic methods, and if you are a newbie keno player, every bit of advice will help make your keno gambling more exciting.
