But let’s deal with the basic facts for now.
When describing keno to novices, some betting pros compare it to the lottery. This is at least to a certain extent correct, in that each game is generally numerical. But to take that comparison too far can be to downplay the innumerable unique aspect that make keno so entertaining. Not like bingo, keno gamblers have the power to pick the numbers for each and every card.
Keno cards have a total of 80 numbers, but the user is accord an increased level of personal responsibility by being able to select as numerous (or as few) numbers as she wants. And it doesn’t take a genius to come up with how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark all your picked numbers with a ordinarymarker like you used back in the day.
Once you have picked your numbers, take the card back to the girl at the keno booth. The nice person will record those numbers and then give you a receipt. Don’t drop this (potentially) valuable bit of paper! Even if the clerk remembers your face and would like to help out, without a winning slip with you, you will win exactly $.00 for your time spent.
OK, so there you have strategy numero uno: always take care to keep your keno ticket. Let’s move on to something a bit more complex, shall we?
Once you’ve marked your numbers, get yourself into a nice keno booth and observe the action happen on a monitor. That’s where the winning numbers are displayed for all to see. If you selected winners, mark your card aptly. Make sure not to dally, or sit there congratulating yourself for too great a length of time. You need to get back to the keno booth to get your winnings, as a new keno game will most likely start up within five minutes.
Strategy number 2: always go back to the keno booth on time!
Since you can’t trust yourself to beat that five-minute deadline each and every time, you always retain the option of purchasing a "multi-race" card. These include the very same set of your handpicked numbers on anywhere from two to 20 slips. When the maximum number of keno games (fitting the amount of tickets) is played out, you should then get off your numb back side and go retrieve your winnings.
Yet another alternative is referred to as a "stray and play" keno ticket, which generally lets you make number selection for thirty rounds or more. Golly, you can take all the time in the world and not have to worry about getting back in time to collect your winnings. Most "stray and play" cards are good for up to a whole year after purchase!
So now you have learned a few indispensable techniques for winning keno. If you are an accomplished keno player, they may appear to be stupidly obvious. But it does not hurt to bone up on the basic strategies, and if you are a beginner player, every bit of advice will help make your keno wagering more fun.
