It won’t commonly be seen as the best game in the arena of wagering, but keno has loads of passionate admirers. And why not? It’s a consistently exciting lotto-type game that’s a breeze to play, readily available in several assorted variations, and one that might yield millions for those who learn its many subtle nuances. But let’s start with the basic facts for now.

When defining keno to newcomers, some wagering connoisseurs compare it to bingo. This is at least in some ways correct, in that each game is fundamentally numerical. Yet to take that comparison too far is likely to be to discount the innumerable unique traits that make keno so compelling. Not like bingo, keno users have the power to pick the numbers for every card.

Keno cards have a grand total of eighty numbers, but the gambler is given an increased level of personal responsibility by being able to choose as numerous (or as few) numbers as she needs. And it doesn’t take a keno superstar to determine how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark each of your selected numbers with a normalpen like you used when you were a kid.

After you have checked your numbers, carry your keno card back to the keno pit manager at the keno booth. The girl will record those numbers and then give you a receipt. Make sure no to drop this (potentially) lucrative piece of paper! Even if the clerk remembers you and would like to help out, without a winning ticket on you, you will be given precisely $.00 for your time spent.

So, there you have strategy numero uno: always make sure to keep your keno ticket. Let’s advance to something a little bit more complex, what do you think?

After you’ve picked out your numbers, get into a nice keno booth and see the action happen on the video monitor. That’s where the winning numbers are displayed for all to see. If you’ve got winning numbers, mark your card appropriately. Make sure not to drag your feet, or sit there praising yourself for too great a length of time. You must get up to the keno stand to get your winnings, as a new round of keno will most likely start within 5 minutes.

Strategy number two: always get back to the keno booth on time!

Since you don’t trust yourself to make that five-minute margin each and every time, you always have the option of using a "multi-race" card. These include the same set of your chosen numbers on anywhere from two to twenty slips. When the max amount of keno games (fitting the number of tickets) is completed, you should then get off your lazy rump and go get your winnings.

Another option is known as a "stray and play" keno slip, which generally lets you make number selection for 30 keno rounds or more. Golly, you can take vacation to Greece and not have to worry about getting back in time to collect your winnings. Most "stray and play" tickets are good for up to a whole year after you purchase it!

So now you have learned a couple of needed strategies for winning keno. If you are an experienced user, they may seem to be stupidly obvious. But it won’t hurt to study up on the fundamentals, and if you are a beginner keno player, every bit of advice will help make your keno playing more fun.
