Keno is a game of pure randomness and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought to the U.S.A by Chinese migrants in the nineteenth century. As with lotto games, it’s an absolutely simple to play, and it is appealing as big prizes are offered for very little wagers. Keno is played at lounges, clubs and civic center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lottery games – horrid expectations.

Understandably, Keno found its way into casinos on the internet as it was a simple game to establish, and casino owners wanted to capture the large land based Keno fan base online. What was even more in the favour of casinos on the internet was that many people were used to playing Keno on electronic screens, so the move online was a insignificant encumbrance than say with vingt-et-un.

So here is how you play Keno. You begin by selecting between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase multiple tickets for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre-buy for games in the future.

Once you have submitted your selection, twenty balls with numbers will "enter" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your spots are selected, you win. That simple. You will obviously gain more, if more of your spots surface, like with lottos.

Most keno online games allow you to purchase tickets between five cents and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot fortunes of up to 50,000 dollars are not uncommon.

Simple? Absolutely. So there must be a catch? Absolutely. The gambling casino advantage with Keno is thirty percent or more, the WORST of any online casino game. The chances of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big margin the atrocious game you might possibly gamble on. If you want a game of chance wager on slots.
