It won’t often be considered the most lucrative game in the realm of betting, but keno has massive amounts of dedicated admirers. And why not? It’s a routinely exciting lottery-type game that’s simple to master, readily available in lots of alternate formats, and one that can yield millions for those who master its uncounted subtle rules. But let’s begin with the beginner’s rules here.
When defining keno to newcomers, some gaming masters compare it to bingo. This is at least nearly correct, in that both games are essentially numerical. Yet to take that comparison too far can be to miscalculate the many unique aspect that make keno so interesting. Not like bingo, keno users have the power to pick the numbers for each card.
Keno cards have a grand total of eighty numbers, but the player is furnished with an additional level of personal responsibility by being able to decide on as many (or as few) numbers as he or she feels they need. And it doesn’t take a doctor of keno to ascertain how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark all your desired numbers with a normalmarker like you used when you were in grade 3.
After you have selected your numbers, take your keno card back to the nice person at the keno booth. The keno pit manager will record those numbers and then hand you a receipt. Do not drop this (potentially) lucrative bit of paper! Even if the keno pit manager remembers your mug and would like to help out, without a winning slip on you, you will win precisely $.00 for your winning card.
Now there you have strategy #1: always be sure to keep your keno slip. Let us advance to something a little bit more complex, ok?
Once you’ve picked your numbers, settle into a comfy keno booth and watch the action happen on the keno monitor. That is where the winning numbers appear in lights. If you marked winning numbers, mark your card appropriately. Be sure not to drag your feet, or sit there praising yourself for an obnoxious length of time. You must get up to the keno stand to collect your winnings, and a new drawing will probably start within not too many minutes.
Strategy number 2: always get back to the keno stand on time!
Assuming you can’t trust yourself to meet that five-minute margin every time, you always have the option of using a "multi-race" card. These include the very same set of your selected numbers on anywhere from two to twenty tickets. When the max amount of rounds (matching the amount of tickets) is finished, you may then get off your lazy bum and go retrieve your winnings.
Yet another option is known as a "stray and play" keno card, which normally allows you make number picks for thirty keno games or more. Heck, you can take a Swedish massage and not have to worry about getting back in time to retrieve your numbers. Most "stray and play" game tickets are good for up to a whole year after you by it!
And now you know a number of needed techniques for winning keno. If you are a knowledgeable keno player, they might appear to be very obvious. Still, it doesn’t hurt to study up on the basics, and if you are a new player, every little bit of information will help make your keno experience more captivating.
