Keno is a game of pure luck and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought over to the US of A by Chinese immigrants in the 19th aeon. As with lotto games, it’s a dead easy to play, and it is enjoyable as large jackpots are available for very tiny wagers. Keno is played at bars, clubs and community centers all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lotto games – horrid expectations.

Understandably, Keno found its way into online casinos as it was a simple game to develop, and internet casino operators wanted to capture the huge brick and mortar Keno players online. 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 hardly a encumbrance than say with twenty-one.

So here is how you play Keno. You start off by choosing between 4 and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase many cards for the same draw, and in a few games you can even pre-order for upcoming games.

Once you have submitted your selection, 20 numbered balls will "enter" into a capsule from a barrel. If enough of your spots are selected, you win. That is all there is. You will obviously amass more, if more of your numbers hit, like with lottos.

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

Easy? Absolutely. So there should be a catch? Yeah. The house edge with Keno is thirty percent or higher, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a wide shot the awful game you might possibly play. If you want a game of chance bet on slot machines.
