Keno is a game of pure luck and is very close to Lotto games. The game was brought over to the USA by Chinese newcomers in the nineteenth century. As with lottery games, it is an absolutely easy to play, and it is appealing as substantial jackpots are available for very little wagers. Keno is enjoyed at bars, clubs and rec center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lottery games – terrible odds.

Logically, Keno found its way into online casinos as it was an easy game to create, and online casino owners wanted to benefit from the large land based Keno fan base online. What was even more in the favour of casinos on the internet was that many people were used to betting on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move online was hardly a encumbrance than say with blackjack.

So here is how you enjoy Keno. You begin by selecting between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can buy different cards for the same draw, and in some games you can even pre purchase for future games.

Once you have submitted your choices, twenty balls with numbers will "drop" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are selected, you win. It is that easy. You will obviously amass more, if more of your spots come up, like with lotteries.

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

Simple? Yes. So there should be a problem? Yes. The gambling casino advantage with Keno is thirty percent or higher, the WORST of any internet casino game. The odds of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a long shot the awful game you can possibly play. If you are wanting a game of luck wager on slots.
