Keno is a game of pure randomness and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought to the the states by Chinese expatriates in the nineteenth aeon. As with lotto games, it’s a dead simple to play, and it is endearing as large jackpots are offered for very little bets. Keno is played at taverns, clubs and rec center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another similarity with lotto games – horrible odds.

Logically, Keno found its way into online casinos as it was an easy game to develop, and internet casino operators wanted to ensnare the large brick and mortar Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many players were used to gambling on Keno on electronic screens, so the move on to the internet was hardly a barrier than say with 21.

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

After you have submitted your selection, 20 numbered balls will "enter" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your numbers are selected, you win. That simple. You will obviously gain more, if more of your spots come up, like with lotteries.

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

Simple? Yeah. So there should be a problem? Yes. The casino advantage with Keno is 30 percent or more, the WORST of any online casino game. The chances of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a big margin the atrocious game you could possibly wager on. If you want a game of randomness wager on slots.
