It might not generally be deemed the most lucrative game in the realm of gaming, but keno has millions of devout enthusiasts. And so it should! It’s a always entertaining lottery-style game that’s a breeze to learn, readily available in loads of alternate formats, and one that will return millions for those who master its limitless subtle rules. But let’s deal with the basic rules for now.
When defining keno to novices, some betting connoisseurs compare it to lotto. This is at least to some extent correct, in that each game is essentially numerical. But to take that comparison too far is likely to be to devalue the countless unique traits that make keno so fun. Not like bingo, keno enthusiasts have the ability to select the numbers for each card.
Keno cards have a grand total of eighty numbers, but the user is given an additional degree of personal responsibility by being able to decide on as many (or as few) numbers as she thinks is appropriate. And it doesn’t take a nuclear physicist to figure out how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark all of your selected numbers with a ordinarypen like you used when you were in third grade.
After you’ve checked your numbers, carry your game card back to the clerk at the keno stand. The girl will record those numbers and then hand you a receipt. Make sure no to drop this (potentially) valuable piece of paper! Even if the clerk remembers you and would like to help out, without a winning slip with you, you will collect precisely $.00 for your time spent.
So, there you have strategy numero uno: always be sure to keep your keno slip. Let’s move on to something a little more advanced, yes?
Once you’ve checked off your numbers, get into a comfortable keno booth and observe the action unfold on the video monitor. This is where the winning numbers show up for us. If you checked winning numbers, mark your card aptly. Make sure not to dilly dally, or sit there congratulating yourself for too great a length of time. You really want to get up to the keno stand to redeem your winnings, since a new keno game will almost certainly begin within 5 minutes.
Strategy number two: always make it back to the keno stand on time!
Assuming you don’t trust yourself to beat that five-minute deadline each and every time, you always retain the option of buying a "multi-race" card. These include the self same set of your selected numbers on anywhere from two to twenty cards. When the max number of keno games (fitting the number of tickets) is played, you should then get off your lazy back side and go collect your winnings.
Still another opportunity is known as a "stray and play" keno card, which normally lets you make number picks for thirty rounds or more. Golly, you can take a Swedish massage and not have to worry about getting back in time to retrieve your winnings. Most "stray and play" cards are good for up to a whole year after it’s bought!
And now you know a couple of indispensable methods for winning keno. If you are a skillful gambler, they may appear to be quite obvious. Still, it will never hurt to bone up on the fundamentals, and if you are a beginner keno player, every tiny bit of direction will help make your keno betting more exciting.
