Think Carefully Before You Play Keno

Keno is a game of pure speculation and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought to the US by Chinese immigrants in the nineteenth aeon. As with lotto games, it’s an absolutely easy to play, and it is endearing as substantial prizes are available for very tiny bets. Keno is played at saloons, clubs and rec center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lottery games – horrendous odds.

Understandably, Keno found its way into online casinos as it was a simple game to build, and casino owners wanted to entice the large land based Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many people were used to wagering on Keno on electronic screens, so the move on to the internet was hardly a barrier than say with twenty-one.

So here is how you play Keno. You begin by appointing between 4 and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each choice is referred to as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase many tickets for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre purchase for upcoming games.

Once you have submitted your choices, 20 numbered balls will "enter" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your spots are selected, you win. It’s that easy. You will obviously gain more, if more of your numbers hit, like with lotteries.

Most internet keno games allow you to buy tickets between 5 cents and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot prizes of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.

Easy? Yes. So there has to be a catch? Yeah. The house advantage with Keno is 30% or greater, the WORST of any internet casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a big shot the worst game you might possibly gamble on. If you are looking for a game of chance gamble on slots.
