It might not commonly be deemed the sexiest game in the realm of gaming, but keno has loads of fanatical followers. As well it should! It’s a consistently exciting lotto-ish game that’s easy to pickup, abundantly available in loads of assorted styles, and one that can yield mega-dollars for those who master its countless subtle intricacies. But let’s deal with the basics here.
When explaining keno to novices, some gaming masters compare it to lotto. This is at least in some measure correct, in that each game is generally numerical. However, to take that comparison too far might be to miscalculate the many unique traits that make keno so fun. Unlike bingo, keno gamblers have the power to pick the numbers for each and every card.
Keno cards have a grand total of eighty numbers, but the player is accord an increased degree of personal responsibility by being able to decide on as numerous (or as few) numbers as he or she needs. And it doesn’t take a keno superstar to determine how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark all your selected numbers with a normalmarker like you had back in the day.
Once you have selected your numbers, take your game card back to the girl at the keno booth. The person will record your numbers and then give you a receipt. Do not misplace this (potentially) lucrative piece of paper! Even if the keno pit manager remembers your pretty face and would like to help out, without a winning slip in hand, you will be given exactly $.00 for your winning card.
So, there you have strategy #1: always take care to keep your keno slip. Let’s move to something a tiny bit more complicated, what do you think?
Now that you’ve picked your numbers, get yourself into a comfy keno booth and see the action happen on the keno monitor. That’s where the winning numbers are displayed in lights. If you have winners, mark your card accordingly. Make sure not to drag your feet, or sit there congratulating yourself for an obnoxious length of time. You really want to get back to the keno stand to redeem your winnings, and then a new keno game will certainly begin within not too many minutes.
Strategy number two: always make it back to the keno booth on time!
Since you can’t trust yourself to meet that five-minute margin each time, you always retain the option of purchasing a "multi-race" ticket. These include the same set of your handpicked numbers on anywhere from 2 to 20 tickets. When the max amount of keno games (the same as the number of tickets) is played, you are then able to get off your lazy back side and go collect your winnings.
Still another choice is referred to as a "stray and play" keno slip, which normally allows you make number picks for thirty keno rounds or more. Hell, you can take all the time in the world and not have to worry about getting back in time to retrieve your winnings. Most "stray and play" slips are good for up to a whole year after it’s purchased!
And now you know several necessary schemes for winning keno. If you are an experienced player, they might seem quite obvious. However, it won’t hurt to bone up on the basics, and if you are a newbie player, every tiny bit of advice will help make your keno gambling more exciting.
