Keno Strategies That Will Make You Rich
It may not generally be thought of as the most fun game in the universe of wagering, but keno has tons of devoted fans. And it ought to! It’s a regularly exciting lottery-esque game that’s simple to master, abundantly available in loads of different formats, and one that might yield millions for gamblers who master its numerous subtle intricacies. But let’s begin with the beginner’s rules for now.
When describing keno to beginners, some gaming pros compare it to lotto. This is at least tolerably apt, in that each game is fundamentally numerical. But to take that comparison too far will be to devalue the great many unique traits that make keno so exciting. Not like bingo, keno gamblers have the power to pick the numbers for every card.
Keno cards have a total of eighty numbers, but the player is granted an increased level of personal responsibility by being able to choose as many (or as few) numbers as he needs. And it doesn’t take a nuclear physicist to figure out how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark each of your chosen numbers with a every day oldmarker like you had when you were in school.
Now that you’ve picked your numbers, take the keno card back to the clerk at the keno stand. The clerk will record your numbers and then hand you a receipt. Do not misplace this (potentially) valuable piece of paper! Even if the clerk remembers your loud shirt and wants help out, without a winning slip on you, you will be given exactly $.00 for your actions.
OK, so there you have strategy number one: always make sure to keep your keno ticket. Let us move to something a little bit more advanced, yes?
Now that you’ve selected your numbers, get yourself into a comfy keno booth and watch the action happen on the big keno monitor. This is where the winning numbers appear for us. If you marked winning numbers, mark your card aptly. Make sure not to drag your feet, or sit there praising yourself for an obnoxious length of time. You are required to get back to the keno booth to collect your winnings, as a new round of keno will most likely get going within 5 minutes.
Strategy number two: always be sure to get back to the keno stand on time!
Since you don’t trust yourself to meet that 5 minute margin each and every time, you always have the option of using a "multi-race" ticket. These include the very same set of your picked numbers on anywhere from 2 to twenty tickets. When the maximum number of games (fitting the amount of tickets) is played out, you are then able to get off your numb butt and go collect your winnings.
Another choice is recognized as a "stray and play" keno ticket, which usually lets you make number picks for 30 games or more. Heck, you can take all the time in the world and not have to worry about getting back in time to redeem your winnings. Most "stray and play" tickets are good for up to a whole year after purchase!
And now you have learned a couple of essential methods for winning keno. If you are a knowledgeable keno player, they may seem quite obvious. But it does not hurt to bone up on the fundamentals, and if you are a newbie keno player, every little bit of direction will help make your keno wagering more enjoyable.
