Keno is a game of pure chance and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought to the US of A by Chinese expatriates in the 19th century. As with lotto games, it is a dead simple to play, and it is enjoyable as large fortunes are available for very little wagers. Keno is enjoyed at lounges, clubs and rec center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another similarity with lotto games – horrid expectations.

Sensibly, Keno hit upon its way into online casinos as it was an easy game to create, and online casino software owners wanted to capture the big brick and mortar Keno players online. What was even more in the favor of internet casinos was that many gamblers were accustomed to playing Keno on electronic screens, so the move on to the internet was hardly a hurdle than say with twenty-one.

So here is how you play Keno. You start off by appointing between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is referred to as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase many tickets for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre-order for games in the future.

After you have submitted your selection, 20 balls with numbers will "enter" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. That’s all there is. You will obviously win more, if more of your spots appear, like with lottos.

Most keno internet games allow you to purchase tickets between 5c and $5, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot prizes of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.

Simple? Yes. So there must be a catch? Absolutely. The gambling casino advantage with Keno is 30% or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big shot the awful game you could possibly play. If you are wanting a game of randomness gamble on slot machines.
