It will not usually be seen as the most lucrative game in the field of gambling, but keno has loads of fanatical enthusiasts. And it ought to! It’s a regularly exciting lottery-type game that’s a breeze to play, readily available in many different formats, and one that might pay out mega-dollars for those who learn its endless subtle rules. But let’s start with the beginner’s rules here.

When describing keno to newcomers, some wagering masters compare it to bingo. This is at least to a certain extent correct, in that each game is fundamentally numerical. However, to take that comparison too far might be to belittle the innumerable unique traits that make keno so entertaining. Not like bingo, keno users have the freedom to select the numbers for each card.

Keno cards have a grand total of eighty numbers, but the player is given an extra level of personal responsibility by being able to select as many (or as few) numbers as he wants. And it doesn’t take a super genius to figure out how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark each of your handpicked numbers with a every day oldball point pen like you used back in the day.

Now that you have selected your numbers, carry the card back to the girl at the keno stand. The nice person will record those numbers and then give you a receipt. Do not misplace this (potentially) valuable bit of paper! Even if the clerk remembers you and would like to help out, without a winning ticket with you, you will collect precisely $.00 for your winning card.

So, there you have strategy number one: always be sure to keep your keno receipt. Let us get on to something a bit more complicated, yes?

Once you’ve picked your numbers, get yourself into a comfy keno booth and watch the action take place on a monitor. That is where the winning numbers show up for us. If you checked winning numbers, mark your card accordingly. Be sure not to dally, or sit there congratulating yourself for too great a length of time. You must get back to the keno booth to redeem your winnings, and a new drawing will probably get going within five minutes.

Strategy #2: always go 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 buying a "multi-race" ticket. These include the same set of your selected numbers on anywhere from two to 20 cards. When the max amount of keno games (fitting the amount of tickets) is completed, you may then get off your lazy rump and go redeem your winnings.

Still another alternative is recognized as a "stray and play" keno card, which normally lets you make number choices for 30 rounds or more. Hell, you can take vacation to Greece and not have to worry about getting back in time to retrieve your numbers. Most "stray and play" tickets are good for up to a whole year after you purchase it!

So now you are aware of a few indispensable techniques for winning keno. If you are a discerning user, they may seem stupidly obvious. Still, it won’t hurt to bone up on the basic strategies, and if you are a beginner gambler, every bit of direction will help make your keno experience more captivating.
