Keno is a game of pure luck and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought over 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 attractive as substantial jackpots are available for very tiny bets. Keno is played at saloons, clubs and rec center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lotto games – horrible expectations.

Rationally, Keno ensconced its way into casinos on the internet as it was an easy game to create, and online casino operators wanted to capture the large brick and mortar Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favor of online casinos was that many players were used to wagering on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move on to the internet was less of a problem than say with 21.

So here is how you play Keno. You start off by choosing between 4 and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each choice is describe as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy different tickets for the same draw, and in some games you can even pre-order for upcoming games.

Once you have submitted your choices, 20 balls with numbers will "drop" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your spots are drawn, you win. It is that easy. You will obviously come away with more, if more of your numbers hit, like with lottos.

Most internet keno games allow you to purchase cards between five cents and five dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot fortunes of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.

Simple? Yes. So there has to be a problem? Yes. The casino edge with Keno is 30% or more, the WORST of any internet casino game. The odds of landing on a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a big margin the worst game you could possibly play. If you are looking for a game of randomness bet on slots.
