Think Carefully Prior to Playing Keno
Keno is a game of pure chance and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought over to the U.S.A by Chinese migrants in the nineteenth aeon. As with lotto games, it’s an absolutely easy to play, and it is enjoyable as big fortunes are available for very tiny bets. Keno is enjoyed at taverns, clubs and community centers all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lotto games – horrid odds.
Understandably, Keno hit upon its way into casinos on the internet as it was a simple game to build, and online casino owners wanted to entice the giant land based Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favor of online casinos was that many people were accustomed to wagering on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move on to the internet was a insignificant 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 80 numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase different cards for the same draw, and in some games you can even pre purchase for games in the future.
Once you have submitted your selection, twenty balls with numbers will "enter" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are selected, you win. That simple. You will obviously amass more, if more of your spots are landed on, like with lotteries.
Most online keno games allow you to buy cards between 5c and $5, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot fortunes of up to 50,000 dollars are not uncommon.
Simple? Absolutely. So there must be a problem? Absolutely. The house edge with Keno is 30 percent or higher, the WORST of any internet casino game. The expectation of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a wide margin the awful game you might possibly play. If you are wanting a game of chance wager on slots.
