Ponder Carefully Before You Gamble on Keno
Keno is a game of pure chance and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought to the America by Chinese newcomers in the nineteenth century. As with lottery games, it is a dead easy to play, and it is enchanting as substantial jackpots are available for very little bets. Keno is played at lounges, clubs and recreation center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lotto games – horrid expectations.
Understandably, Keno hit upon its way into internet casinos as it was an easy game to create, and online casino operators wanted to entice the large brick and mortar Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favor of online casinos was that many people were used to wagering on Keno on electronic screens, so the move on to the internet was less of a problem than say with blackjack.
So here is how you enjoy Keno. You start off by selecting between four and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is referred to as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can buy countless cards for the same draw, and in a few games you can even pre-order for games in the future.
After you have submitted your choices, 20 balls with numbers will "enter" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are picked, you win. That’s all there is. You will obviously earn more, if more of your spots hit, like with lottos.
Most keno internet games allow you to purchase cards between 5c and $5, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot fortunes of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.
Easy? Yeah. So there should be a catch? Yeah. The casino edge with Keno is thirty percent or more, the WORST of any internet casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a wide shot the atrocious game you can possibly gamble on. If you are wanting a game of chance wager on slot machines.
