It won’t ordinarily be deemed the most fun game in the arena of wagering, but keno has loads of devoted fans. As well it should! It’s a consistently exciting lottery-style game that’s easy to pickup, readily available in loads of assorted styles, and one that might pay out mega-dollars for gamblers who learn its countless subtle intricacies. But let’s deal with the beginner’s rules here.

When defining keno to newbies, some betting pros compare it to the lottery. This is at least tolerably correct, in that both games are generally numerical. However, to take that comparison too far is likely to be to misunderstand the countless unique characteristics 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 total of 80 numbers, but the gambler is furnished with an increased degree of personal responsibility by being able to select as numerous (or as few) numbers as he or she feels they need. And it doesn’t take a genius to figure out how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark all your selected numbers with a normalpen like you used when you were in third grade.

Once you’ve marked your numbers, carry the card back to the nice person at the keno booth. The keno pit manager will record those numbers and then hand you a receipt. Make sure no to misplace this (potentially) lucrative piece of paper! Even if the keno pit manager remembers your loud shirt and wants help out, without a winning slip on you, you will be given exactly $.00 for your time spent.

And there you have strategy #1: always be sure to keep your keno ticket. Let us advance to something a little more advanced, ok?

After you’ve picked out your numbers, settle into a nice keno booth and watch the action unfold on a video monitor. That’s where the winning numbers are displayed for all to see. If you selected winning numbers, mark your card accordingly. Sake care not to dally, or sit there praising yourself for an obnoxious length of time. You need to get up to the keno booth to collect your winnings, since a new round of keno will probably start within not too many minutes.

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

Assuming you don’t trust yourself to make that five-minute deadline every time, you always retain the option of purchasing a "multi-race" ticket. These include the same set of your desired numbers on anywhere from two to twenty cards. When the max amount of keno games (the same as the number of tickets) is played out, you should then get off your lazy back side and go collect your winnings.

Yet an additional option is known as a "stray and play" keno card, which commonly allows you make number picks for 30 keno games or more. Gosh, you can take vacation to Italy and not have to fret about getting back in time to redeem your numbers. Most "stray and play" slips are good for up to a whole year after you by it!

And now you are aware of a handful of necessary methods for winning keno. If you are a skillful keno player, they may seem to be stupidly obvious. But it will not hurt to study up on the fundamentals, and if you are a beginner player, every tiny bit of direction will help make your keno playing more captivating.
