Ponder Carefully Prior to Playing Keno

Keno is a game of pure randomness and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought over to the US of A by Chinese immigrants in the nineteenth aeon. As with lottery games, it is a very simple to play, and it is appealing as large jackpots are offered for very little wagers. Keno is enjoyed at saloons, clubs and civic center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lotto games – terrible expectations.

Rationally, Keno ensconced its way into online casinos as it was an easy game to build, and casino owners wanted to ensnare the big brick and mortar Keno players online. What was even more in the favor of internet casinos was that many players were used to gambling on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move on to the internet was hardly a encumbrance than say with chemin de fer.

So here is how you play Keno. You start off by appointing between four and ten numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is describe as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase many cards for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre-order for upcoming games.

After you have submitted your choices, twenty numbered balls will "drop" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. That simple. You will obviously come away with more, if more of your spots come up, like with lottos.

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

Simple? Absolutely. So there should be a problem? Yes. The house edge with Keno is 30 percent or more, the WORST of any internet casino game. The chances of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big margin the worst game you might possibly bet on. If you are looking for a game of speculation play slot machines.
