It will not usually be deemed the funnest game in the realm of wagering, but keno has massive amounts of keen players. And it should!

When describing keno to newbies, some betting masters compare it to lotto. This is at least nearly apt, in that each game is generally numerical. Yet to take that comparison too far can be to detract from the innumerable unique aspect that make keno so interesting. Not like bingo, keno players have the ability to select the numbers for each card.

Keno cards have a grand total of eighty numbers, but the player is accord an additional degree of personal responsibility by being able to select as numerous (or as few) numbers as he thinks is appropriate. And it doesn’t take a keno superstar to ascertain how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark all of your handpicked numbers with a ordinarypen like you used when you were a kid.

Once you have marked your numbers, carry your keno card back to the girl at the keno stand. The clerk will record your numbers and then hand you a receipt. Don’t lose this (potentially) lucrative bit of paper! Even if the keno pit manager remembers your pretty face and would like to help out, without a winning slip in hand, you will win exactly $.00 for your winning card.

You really want to get back to the keno booth to get your winnings, as a new round of keno will probably begin within a few minutes.

Strategy number 2: always be sure to get back to the keno booth on time!

Since you don’t trust yourself to make that 5 minute margin every time, you always retain the option of buying a "multi-race" card. These include the same set of your selected numbers on anywhere from two to twenty cards. When the maximum number of games (the same as the amount of tickets) is finished, you are then able to get off your numb rump and go collect your winnings.

Another alternative is referred to as a "stray and play" keno slip, which commonly lets you make number choices for 30 games or more. Heck, you can take a world tour and not have to fret about getting back in time to get your numbers. Most "stray and play" tickets are good for up to a whole year after it’s purchased!

Still, it will never hurt to study up on the fundamentals, and if you are a newbie player, every bit of information will help make your keno wagering more entertaining.
