Keno is a game of pure speculation and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought to the America by Chinese expatriates in the 19th aeon. As with lottery games, it’s a very simple to enjoy, and it is enjoyable as substantial jackpots are available for very little bets. Keno is played at saloons, clubs and civic center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lotto games – horrendous odds.

Understandably, Keno happen upon its way into internet casinos as it was an easy game to create, and casino software owners wanted to capture the giant brick and mortar Keno players online. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many people were accustomed to gambling on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move online was less of a hurdle than say with 21.

So here is how you enjoy Keno. You start off by choosing between four and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each choice is referred to as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can buy many tickets for the same draw, and in some games you can even pre-order for upcoming games.

After you have submitted your choices, twenty balls with numbers will "enter" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. That simple. You will obviously win more, if more of your spots surface, like with lottos.

Most online keno games allow you to buy tickets between 5 cents and five dollars, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot prizes of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.

Simple? Absolutely. So there must be a catch? Yeah. The casino advantage with Keno is 30% or more, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a big shot the worst game you could possibly play. If you want a game of randomness bet on slots.
