Ponder Long And Hard Before You Bet on Keno
Keno is a game of pure chance and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought over to the America by Chinese expatriates in the nineteenth aeon. As with lotto games, it is an absolutely easy to enjoy, and it is appealing as big prizes are offered for very tiny wagers. Keno is enjoyed at saloons, clubs and rec center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lottery games – terrible expectations.
Rationally, Keno found its way into online casinos as it was a simple game to establish, and online casino software owners wanted to benefit from the giant land based Keno fan base online. What was even more in the favor of casinos on the internet was that many people were used to wagering on Keno on video screens, so the move on to the internet was less of a hurdle than say with 21.
So here is how you enjoy Keno. You start off by selecting between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is referred to as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase different tickets for the same draw, and in a handful games you can even pre-buy for upcoming games.
Once you have submitted your selection, twenty balls with numbers will "drop" into a capsule from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are picked, you win. It’s that easy. You will obviously win more, if more of your spots hit, like with lotteries.
Most keno internet games allow you to buy tickets between 5c and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot prizes of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.
Simple? Yes. So there should be a problem? Yes. The house edge with Keno is thirty percent or greater, the WORST of any internet casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a big shot the atrocious game you might possibly bet on. If you are seeking a game of luck bet on slots.
