Keno Tactics That Are Sure To Win
It will not often be seen as the most fun game in the world of wagering, but keno has loads of devoted followers. And so it should! It’s a consistently thrilling lotto-esque game that’s uncomplicated to pickup, readily available in several assorted styles, and one that will return millions of dollars for those who master its uncounted subtle intricacies. But let’s deal with the basics for now.
When defining keno to newbies, some betting experts compare it to bingo. This is at least partly apt, in that both games are essentially numerical. But to carry that comparison too far will be to misunderstand the countless unique characteristics that make keno so entertaining. Not like bingo, keno users have the ability to select the numbers for every card.
Keno cards have a grand total of 80 numbers, but the gambler is given an extra level of personal responsibility by being able to select as many (or as few) numbers as he or she wants. And it doesn’t take a doctor of keno to determine how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark each of your chosen numbers with a normalpen like you had when you were in school.
After you’ve checked your numbers, carry the keno card back to the person at the keno stand. The nice person will record your numbers and then hand you a receipt. Do not misplace this (potentially) lucrative bit of paper! Even if the clerk remembers your face and would like to help out, without a winning receipt in hand, you will collect exactly $.00 for your time spent.
And there you have strategy number one: always be sure to keep your keno ticket. Let us move to something a tiny bit more complicated, yes?
Once you’ve picked your numbers, get into a comfortable keno booth and watch the action unfold on the screen. This is where the winning numbers are shown in lights. If you checked winning numbers, mark your card aptly. Sake care not to drag your feet, or sit there praising yourself for an obnoxious length of time. You are required to get up to the keno booth to redeem your winnings, since a new keno game will likely start up within five minutes.
Strategy #2: always go back to the keno stand on time!
Since you do not trust yourself to meet that 5 minute margin each time, you always have the option of purchasing a "multi-race" ticket. These include the self same set of your desired numbers on anywhere from 2 to 20 cards. When the max number of keno games (the same as the amount of tickets) is completed, you are then able to get off your lazy butt and go collect your winnings.
Yet an additional choice is referred to as a "stray and play" keno ticket, which generally allows you make number choices for thirty keno rounds or more. Golly, you can take all the time in the world and not have to fret about getting back in time to retrieve your numbers. Most "stray and play" game tickets are good for up to a whole year after you purchase it!
So now you know several essential schemes for winning keno. If you are an adept gambler, they may appear to be quite obvious. Still, it does not hurt to bone up on the fundamentals, and if you are a new gambler, every tiny bit of direction will help make your keno playing more entertaining.
