Keno is a game of pure luck and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought over to the U.S.A by Chinese expatriates in the 19th aeon. As with lottery games, it’s an absolutely simple to play, and it is attractive as substantial jackpots are offered for very tiny wagers. Keno is played at lounges, clubs and community centers all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lottery games – horrendous expectations.

Rationally, Keno happen upon its way into casinos on the internet as it was a simple game to build, and online casino software operators wanted to entice the huge land based Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many players were accustomed to gambling on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move online was less of a hurdle than say with blackjack.

So here is how you enjoy Keno. You begin by choosing between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase countless tickets for the same draw, and in a few games you can even pre-order for games in the future.

After you have submitted your selection, twenty balls with numbers will "drop" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your numbers are selected, you win. That is all there is. You will obviously gain more, if more of your numbers come up, like with lotteries.

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

Easy? Yes. So there has to be a problem? Yes. The house edge with Keno is thirty percent or greater, the WORST of any internet casino game. The odds of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a long shot the atrocious game you might possibly gamble on. If you are looking for a game of randomness wager on slot machines.
