It may not ordinarily be seen as the funnest game in the field of gaming, but keno has millions and millions of fanatical admirers. And it should! It’s a consistently exciting lottery-type game that’s easy to pickup, readily available in a number of assorted variations, and one that might pay out millions for gamblers who learn its innumerable subtle intricacies. But let’s begin with the basic rules here.

When explaining keno to amateurs, some wagering masters compare it to lotto. This is at least in part apt, in that each game is generally numerical. But to take that comparison too far is likely to be to discount the great many unique traits that make keno so fun. Unlike bingo, keno enthusiasts have the power to pick the numbers for each card.

Keno cards have a total of eighty numbers, but the user is given an increased degree of personal responsibility by being able to decide on as many (or as few) numbers as he feels they need. And it doesn’t take a super genius to ascertain how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark all your desired numbers with a every day oldmarker like you had back in school.

Now that you’ve checked your numbers, carry your keno card back to the girl at the keno booth. The person will record those numbers and then hand you a receipt. Make sure no to drop this (potentially) expensive piece of paper! Even if the clerk remembers your loud shirt and would like to help out, without a winning slip with you, you will be given exactly $.00 for your time spent.

Now there you have strategy number one: always take care to keep your keno ticket. Let’s move on to something a little more advanced, yes?

Now that you’ve picked out your numbers, get into a comfortable keno booth and observe the action happen on the video monitor. That’s where the winning numbers appear for us. If you marked winning numbers, mark your card accordingly. Make sure not to dilly dally, or sit there praising yourself for too great a length of time. You want to get up to the keno stand to get your winnings, and then a new drawing will surely get going within 5 minutes.

Strategy #2: always go back to the keno stand on time!

Since you do not trust yourself to make that five-minute margin every time, you always retain the option of purchasing a "multi-race" card. These include the self same set of your chosen numbers on anywhere from two to twenty tickets. When the max amount of games (the same as the number of tickets) is finished, you should then get off your numb back side and go collect your winnings.

Yet an additional opportunity is known as a "stray and play" keno slip, which generally lets you make number picks for 30 rounds or more. Heck, you can take all the time in the world and not have to get uptight about getting back in time to retrieve your numbers. Most "stray and play" cards are good for up to a whole year after it’s purchased!

So now you are aware of several required strategies for winning keno. If you are a good user, they may appear to be very obvious. However, it does not hurt to bone up on the basics, and if you are a new user, every tiny bit of direction will help make your keno games more captivating.
