Keno is a game of pure speculation and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought over to the US by Chinese migrants in the 19th century. As with lottery games, it’s a dead easy to enjoy, and it is attractive as large prizes are offered for very little bets. Keno is played at taverns, clubs and community centers all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lotto games – horrendous odds.
Understandably, Keno ensconced its way into internet casinos as it was an easy game to build, and casino owners wanted to catch the large brick and mortar Keno fan base online. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many players were accustomed to betting on Keno on video terminals, so the move online was hardly a hurdle than say with 21.
So here is how you enjoy Keno. You begin by choosing between 4 and ten numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is describe as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy multiple tickets for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre-buy for upcoming games.
Once you have submitted your choices, 20 numbered balls will "enter" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are selected, you win. That’s all there is. You will obviously amass more, if more of your numbers hit, like with lotteries.
Most keno internet games allow you to purchase tickets between 5 cents and $5, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot prizes of up to $50,000 are not uncommon.
Simple? Absolutely. So there has to be a catch? Yes. The casino advantage with Keno is thirty percent or more, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big margin the awful game you could possibly wager on. If you want a game of speculation wager on slot machines.
