Keno is a game of pure randomness and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought to the US by Chinese expatriates in the nineteenth century. As with lottery games, it’s a very simple to play, and it is attractive as substantial jackpots are available for very tiny bets. Keno is played at bars, clubs and civic center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lottery games – horrible odds.

Sensibly, Keno found its way into casinos on the internet as it was a simple game to establish, and online casino software owners wanted to capture the big brick and mortar Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favor of casinos on the internet was that many players were used to gambling on Keno on video screens, so the move online was hardly a hurdle than say with twenty-one.

So here is how you play Keno. You begin by selecting between 4 and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is describe as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase different cards for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre-buy for upcoming games.

After you have submitted your choices, 20 numbered balls will "drop" into a capsule from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are picked, you win. It’s that easy. You will obviously amass more, if more of your spots hit, like with lottos.

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

Simple? Yes. So there should be a problem? Absolutely. The casino advantage with Keno is 30% or higher, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a wide shot the awful game you can possibly wager on. If you are seeking a game of speculation bet on slots.
