Keno is a game of pure speculation and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought over to the U.S. by Chinese migrants in the 19th aeon. As with lotto games, it is a dead simple to play, and it is enchanting as large fortunes are available for very little wagers. Keno is enjoyed at bars, clubs and community centers all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lotto games – horrendous odds.

Logically, Keno hit upon its way into online casinos as it was a simple game to develop, and online casino operators wanted to benefit from the huge land based Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favour of casinos on the internet was that many people were accustomed to betting on Keno on electronic screens, so the move on to the internet was a insignificant barrier than say with twenty-one.

So here is how you enjoy Keno. You begin by selecting between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each choice is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase multiple cards for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre purchase for future games.

Once you have submitted your selection, 20 numbered balls will "enter" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. That simple. You will obviously gain more, if more of your numbers hit, like with lotteries.

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

Simple? Yeah. So there must be a problem? Absolutely. The casino advantage with Keno is 30 percent or more, the WORST of any internet casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a wide shot the awful game you can possibly gamble on. If you want a game of speculation play slot machines.
