It will not usually be thought of as the most lucrative game in the arena of wagering, but keno has massive amounts of dedicated players. Why wouldn’t it? It’s a consistently entertaining lotto-style game that’s a snap to play, abundantly available in loads of different variations, and one that may pay out mega-dollars for those who master its countless subtle rules. But let’s begin with the basic facts for now.

When explaining keno to novices, some gaming experts compare it to lotto. This is at least nearly apt, in that each game is basically numerical. However, to carry that comparison too far might be to detract from the many unique traits that make keno so interesting. Not like bingo, keno users have the ability to pick the numbers for each and every card.

Keno cards have a grand total of 80 numbers, but the user is accord an extra degree of personal responsibility by being able to pick as numerous (or as few) numbers as he or she needs. And it doesn’t take a super genius to determine how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark all of your desired numbers with a standard#2 pencil like you used when you were in school.

After you have checked your numbers, carry your card back to the girl at the keno stand. The person will record those numbers and then give you a receipt. Do not drop this (potentially) lucrative bit of paper! Even if the clerk remembers your face and wants help out, without a winning ticket in hand, you will collect exactly $.00 for your actions.

Ok, there you have strategy #1: always make sure to keep your keno slip. Let us move to something a bit more useful, ok?

Once you’ve picked out your numbers, get yourself into a nice keno booth and see the action happen on the big keno monitor. That is where the winning numbers are shown for all to see. If you checked winning numbers, mark your card appropriately. Make sure not to move to slowly, or sit there congratulating yourself for too great a length of time. You are required to get up to the keno booth to redeem your winnings, and a new drawing will likely start up within five minutes.

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

Assuming you do not trust yourself to make that five-minute margin each 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 cards. When the max number of games (the same as the number of tickets) is played out, you should then get off your lazy back side and go retrieve your winnings.

Yet an additional alternative is referred to as a "stray and play" keno card, which usually allows you make number selection for 30 rounds or more. Hell, you can take vacation to France and not have to fret about getting back in time to get your winnings. Most "stray and play" tickets are good for up to a whole year after you purchase it!

So now you know a few essential techniques for winning keno. If you are an adept gambler, they might seem to be stupidly obvious. However, it will never hurt to bone up on the basic methods, and if you are a new player, every little bit of advice will help make your keno betting more agreeable.
