Keno Strategies That Will Help You Win
It might not commonly be seen as the most fun game in the field of gaming, but keno has millions and millions of steadfast fans. And it should! It’s a always exciting lotto-style game that’s a snap to master, abundantly available in many different variations, and one that may return millions for those who master its countless subtle rules. But let’s start with the basic facts for now.
When explaining keno to amateurs, some betting connoisseurs compare it to the lottery. This is at least partially apt, in that each game is fundamentally numerical. Yet to carry that comparison too far might be to discount the endless unique characteristics that make keno so interesting. Unlike bingo, keno gamblers have the freedom to choose the numbers for each card.
Keno cards have a total of 80 numbers, but the user is given an extra level of personal responsibility by being able to decide on as numerous (or as few) numbers as he desires. And it doesn’t take a keno superstar to determine how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark each of your picked numbers with a ordinaryball point pen like you had when you were in school.
After you have selected your numbers, take the keno card back to the nice person at the keno booth. The person will record those numbers and then hand you a receipt. Do not misplace this (potentially) valuable piece of paper! Even if the keno pit manager remembers you and would like to help out, without a winning slip in hand, you will collect exactly $.00 for your winning card.
So, there you have strategy #1: always take care to keep your keno ticket. Let us go on to something a little more advanced, shall we?
After you’ve selected your numbers, settle into a comfy keno booth and see the action take place on a big video monitor. This is where the winning numbers are shown for us. If you selected winning numbers, mark your card appropriately. Make sure not to take too much time, or sit there praising yourself for an obnoxious length of time. You must get back to the keno booth to get your winnings, and a new keno game will probably begin within five minutes.
Strategy #2: always get back to the keno stand on time!
Assuming you can not trust yourself to meet that 5 minute margin each and every time, you always retain the option of using a "multi-race" card. These include the very same set of your selected numbers on anywhere from 2 to twenty cards. When the maximum number of keno games (fitting the amount of tickets) is finished, you should then get off your lazy bum and go redeem your winnings.
Yet another option is recognized as a "stray and play" keno slip, which normally lets you make number choices for 30 games or more. Gosh, you can take a world tour and not have to get uptight about getting back in time to retrieve your winnings. Most "stray and play" game tickets are good for up to a whole year after purchase!
And now you have learned a few indispensable strategies for winning keno. If you are an advanced user, they might appear to be stupidly obvious. However, it doesn’t hurt to bone up on the basics, and if you are a beginner gambler, every little bit of direction will help make your keno experience more entertaining.
