Think Carefully Before You Bet on Keno

Keno is a game of pure luck and is very close to Lotto games. The game was brought to the US of A by Chinese migrants in the 19th aeon. As with lottery games, it is a very simple to play, and it is attractive as large fortunes are available for very small wagers. Keno is enjoyed at bars, clubs and recreation center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another similarity with lottery games – horrible expectations.

Understandably, Keno ensconced its way into internet casinos as it was an easy game to create, and online casino owners wanted to catch the big land based Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favour of casinos on the internet was that many players were used to gambling on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move online was hardly a hurdle than say with blackjack.

So here is how you play Keno. You start off by choosing between four and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each choice is called a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase multiple tickets for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre purchase for future games.

After you have submitted your choices, 20 numbered balls will "drop" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. That simple. You will obviously gain more, if more of your spots are landed on, like with lottos.

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

Simple? Yeah. So there has to be a problem? Yes. The gambling casino edge with Keno is 30 percent or higher, the WORST of any internet casino game. The odds of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big shot the atrocious game you can possibly wager on. If you are looking for a game of luck gamble on slots.
