Keno is a game of pure randomness and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought to the America by Chinese expatriates in the 19th century. As with lottery games, it’s a dead simple to enjoy, and it is endearing as big fortunes are offered for very small wagers. Keno is enjoyed at taverns, clubs and civic center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lotto games – horrendous odds.

Rationally, Keno hit upon its way into casinos on the internet as it was a simple game to create, and online casino software owners wanted to capture the giant land based Keno players online. What was even more in the favor of casinos on the internet was that many gamblers were accustomed to betting on Keno on video terminals, so the move online was hardly a barrier than say with vingt-et-un.

So here is how you enjoy Keno. You begin by appointing between four and ten numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each choice is referred to as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase many cards for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre-order for upcoming games.

Once you have submitted your choices, 20 balls with numbers will "drop" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your numbers are selected, you win. That simple. You will obviously amass more, if more of your spots hit, like with lotteries.

Most internet keno games allow you to purchase cards between 5c and $5, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot prizes of up to $50,000 are not uncommon.

Simple? Yeah. So there has to be a catch? Absolutely. The house edge with Keno is 30% or higher, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a wide margin the worst game you could possibly gamble on. If you are wanting a game of randomness bet on slots.
