What was even more in the favor of casinos on the internet was that many gamblers were accustomed to betting on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move on to the internet was hardly a barrier than say with 21.

So here is how you enjoy Keno. You start off by choosing between 4 and ten numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each choice is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy multiple tickets for the same draw, and in some games you can even pre-buy for games in the future.

After you have submitted your choices, twenty numbered balls will "drop" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. It is that easy. You will obviously gain more, if more of your spots come up, like with lottos.

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

Easy? Yes. So there should be a catch? Yes. The casino edge with Keno is 30% or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a long margin the atrocious game you could possibly wager on. If you want a game of chance play slot machines.
