Keno is a game of pure chance and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought over to the US by Chinese immigrants in the nineteenth aeon. As with lottery games, it is a dead easy to enjoy, and it is enjoyable as substantial prizes are available for very small wagers. Keno is enjoyed at bars, clubs and civic center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lottery games – horrid expectations.

Logically, Keno found its way into online casinos as it was a simple game to build, and online casino owners wanted to capture the huge land based Keno players online. What was even more in the favor of online casinos was that many players were used to gambling on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move on to the internet was less of a hurdle than say with chemin de fer.

So here is how you enjoy Keno. You begin by appointing between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is describe as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can buy different cards for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre-buy for future games.

Once you have submitted your selection, twenty numbered balls will "drop" into a capsule from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. That is all there is. You will obviously earn more, if more of your spots come up, like with lottos.

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

Easy? Yeah. So there should be a problem? Absolutely. The gambling casino advantage with Keno is thirty percent or greater, the WORST of any internet casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a wide margin the worst game you might possibly wager on. If you are looking for a game of speculation play slot machines.
