Keno is one of those games you either know about or you do not. It’s generally seen as a lottery in the casino. Similar to the lotto, the game is made up of numbers being selected. The challenge is to select the numbers that will be drawn. The game of Keno can either be quick or slow depending on the casino. By wagering on Keno online you can control the pace of the game. As for me, I prefer live keno. You sit in a lounge, if you wish, and play. Keno is a game that you don’t need to be in the lounge to enjoy and be a winner. For instance, you could put in a ticket for 20 games and then head off to compete in another game in the casino or even your hotel room if you’re staying at the casino.

Keno Board

The game is played on a board. The Keno board consists of 80 numbers – number 1 to eighty. The 1st forty are known as a the top portion and the bottom forty are referred to as the bottom portion.

Playing Keno

Each game of Keno goes the same. The round begins, and 20 numbers are selected. The casino may be using the ball system. Ping pong style balls are sucked up and picked, exactly like the lotto on television. Other casinos use computers. If a number you marked is chosen, that is referred to as a "hit." When all twenty numbers have been picked, the round ends and winning tickets are cashed-in.

There is an abundance of diversity in the game of Keno. For example, you may choose 1 number, two numbers and so on up to 20 numbers. Normally, you have to get most of your numbers to come away with anything. For instance, if you choose six numbers, you will usually need to get 3 to get your money back.

Keno Payouts

The payouts in Keno are fairly big. The probability of winning is dependent on the total numbers picked. For example, if you pick two numbers, you have a six percent probability of hitting your ticket. Each casino has their own payouts. If you are looking to play online, be sure you shop all over for the biggest payouts first.
