Ponder Carefully Before You Wager on Keno
Keno is a game of pure speculation and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought over to the the states by Chinese migrants in the nineteenth aeon. As with lottery games, it is a dead simple to enjoy, and it is appealing as large jackpots are offered for very little bets. Keno is enjoyed at lounges, clubs and community centers all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lotto games – horrendous expectations.
Logically, Keno hit upon its way into online casinos as it was a simple game to develop, and casino software owners wanted to capture the giant brick and mortar Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favour of casinos on the internet was that many people were used to playing Keno on video terminals, so the move online was less of a barrier than say with blackjack.
So here is how you enjoy Keno. You begin by selecting between four and ten numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each choice is referred to as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase many cards for the same draw, and in a few games you can even pre purchase 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 picked, you win. It’s that easy. You will obviously amass more, if more of your numbers are landed on, like with lottos.
Most keno online games allow you to purchase tickets between five cents and five dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot fortunes of up to 50 000 dollars are not uncommon.
Easy? Absolutely. So there should be a catch? Absolutely. The house edge with Keno is 30% or more, the WORST of any internet casino game. The expectation of landing on a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a long shot the worst game you can possibly bet on. If you are looking for a game of randomness wager on slot machines.
