Keno is a game of pure luck and is very close to Lotto games. The game was brought to the the states by Chinese expatriates in the 19th century. As with lottery games, it’s a dead easy to play, and it is appealing as large prizes are available for very small wagers. Keno is enjoyed at saloons, clubs and community centers all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lotto games – horrid expectations.

By reason, Keno ensconced its way into online casinos as it was a simple game to establish, and online casino software owners wanted to benefit from the big brick and mortar Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favour of internet casinos was that many gamblers were used to wagering on Keno on video terminals, so the move online was hardly a barrier than say with chemin de fer.

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

Once you have submitted your choices, 20 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 come away with more, if more of your spots come up, like with lottos.

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

Simple? Absolutely. So there must be a problem? Yeah. The gambling casino advantage with Keno is thirty percent or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a long shot the atrocious game you can possibly wager on. If you want a game of randomness gamble on slot machines.
