Keno is a game of pure speculation and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought over to the USA by Chinese expatriates in the nineteenth century. As with lotto games, it’s a dead easy to enjoy, and it is attractive as big jackpots are available for very little wagers. Keno is played at bars, clubs and rec center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lotto games – horrid expectations.

Understandably, Keno ensconced its way into casinos on the internet as it was an easy game to develop, and internet casino software owners wanted to entice the large land based Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favor of online casinos was that many players were accustomed to wagering on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move on to the internet was hardly a barrier than say with twenty-one.

So here is how you play Keno. You begin by choosing between 4 and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each choice is called a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can buy multiple tickets for the same draw, and in a few games you can even pre-buy for upcoming games.

After you have submitted your selection, 20 numbered balls will "drop" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your spots are drawn, you win. That is all there is. You will obviously earn more, if more of your spots surface, like with lottos.

Most online keno games allow you to purchase tickets between five cents and $5, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot winnings of up to $50 000 are not uncommon.

Simple? Yeah. So there must be a catch? Yeah. The casino advantage with Keno is 30% or more, the WORST of any online casino game. The chances of landing on a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a big margin the awful game you could possibly play. If you want a game of randomness bet on slot machines.
