It might not commonly be deemed the sexiest game in the arena of wagering, but keno has millions of devoted supporters. As well it should! It’s a constantly entertaining lotto-style game that’s uncomplicated to pickup, abundantly available in loads of assorted variations, and one that will yield mega-dollars for people who master its many subtle nuances. But let’s deal with the beginner’s rules here.
When explaining keno to newbies, some betting masters compare it to lotto. This is at least to a certain extent correct, in that each game is basically numerical. But to take that comparison too far is likely to be to belittle the great many unique aspect that make keno so entertaining. Unlike bingo, keno enthusiasts have the ability to pick the numbers for every card.
Keno cards have a grand total of 80 numbers, but the gambler is accord an extra degree of personal responsibility by being able to choose as numerous (or as few) numbers as she wants. And it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to determine how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark all your chosen numbers with a every day old#2 pencil like you had when you were in grade 3.
Now that you’ve selected your numbers, carry your card back to the person at the keno booth. The person will record those numbers and then hand you a receipt. Make sure no to misplace this (potentially) valuable piece of paper! Even if the keno pit manager remembers you and would like to help out, without a winning slip on you, you will win precisely $.00 for your winning card.
OK, so there you have strategy number one: always take care to keep your keno slip. Let’s move to something a bit more complex, what do you think?
Now that you’ve checked off your numbers, settle into a comfortable keno booth and observe the action unfold on the keno monitor. This is where the winning numbers show up for us. If you have winners, mark your card aptly. Sake care not to dilly dally, or sit there congratulating yourself for an obnoxious length of time. You need to get up to the keno booth to get your winnings, and a new keno game will probably get going within a few minutes.
Strategy #2: always make it back to the keno booth on time!
Since you don’t trust yourself to make that five-minute margin every time, you always have the option of buying a "multi-race" card. These include the same set of your chosen numbers on anywhere from 2 to twenty slips. When the maximum amount of games (the same as the amount of tickets) is played, you are then able to get off your lazy back side and go redeem your winnings.
Yet an additional alternative is known as a "stray and play" keno slip, which generally lets you make number choices for thirty rounds or more. Heck, you can take vacation to Italy and not have to fret about getting back in time to retrieve your winnings. Most "stray and play" slips are good for up to a whole year after it’s purchased!
So now you have learned a couple of essential schemes for winning keno. If you are a good user, they may appear to be quite obvious. However, it does not hurt to bone up on the basics, and if you are a novice gambler, every tiny bit of advice will help make your keno betting more entertaining.
