Yet to carry that comparison too far would be to misunderstand the innumerable unique aspect that make keno so compelling. Unlike bingo, keno gamblers have the ability to select the numbers for every card.
Keno cards have a total of eighty numbers, but the user is accord an additional degree of personal responsibility by being able to decide on as numerous (or as few) numbers as she desires. And it doesn’t take a doctor of keno to determine how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark all of your handpicked numbers with a good oldpen like you used back in the day.
Once you have checked your numbers, take the keno card back to the keno pit manager at the keno booth. The nice person will record your numbers and then hand you a receipt. Make sure no to misplace this (potentially) lucrative piece of paper!

Now that you’ve marked your numbers, settle into a comfortable keno booth and see the action happen on the video monitor. This is where the winning numbers show up for us. If you selected winning numbers, mark your card appropriately. Make sure not to take too much time, or sit there congratulating yourself for too great a length of time. You are required to get up to the keno booth to redeem your winnings, and then a new round of keno will probably start up within a few minutes.
Strategy number 2: always make sure to get back to the keno booth on time!
Since you don’t trust yourself to make that 5 minute margin every time, you always retain the option of buying a "multi-race" card. These include the very same set of your handpicked numbers on anywhere from two to 20 tickets. When the maximum number of rounds (matching the number of tickets) is completed, you are then able to get off your lazy back side and go get your winnings.
Yet an additional option is referred to as a "stray and play" keno ticket, which generally allows you make number picks for 30 rounds or more. Golly, you can take vacation to France and not have to get uptight about getting back in time to collect your numbers. Most "stray and play" cards are good for up to a whole year after purchase!
