Ponder For a Long Time Prior to Playing Keno

Keno is a game of pure chance and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought to the the states by Chinese expatriates in the nineteenth century. As with lotto games, it is a very easy to enjoy, and it is endearing as big jackpots are available for very small wagers. Keno is played at bars, clubs and recreation center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lotto games – horrid expectations.

Understandably, Keno happen upon its way into casinos on the internet as it was a simple game to build, and internet casino software operators wanted to entice the large land based Keno players online. What was even more in the favour of casinos on the internet was that many gamblers were accustomed to gambling on Keno on video screens, so the move online was less of a hurdle than say with chemin de fer.

So here is how you play Keno. You begin by choosing between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase multiple cards for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre purchase for games in the future.

After you have submitted your selection, twenty balls with numbers will "enter" into a capsule from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. It’s that easy. You will obviously come away with more, if more of your numbers appear, like with lottos.

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

Simple? Yeah. So there must be a problem? Yeah. The casino edge with Keno is thirty percent or more, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of landing on a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a long margin the awful game you might possibly gamble on. If you want a game of chance gamble on slot machines.
