Keno is a game of pure speculation and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought over to the USA by Chinese migrants in the nineteenth century. As with lotto games, it is an absolutely easy to play, and it is attractive as substantial fortunes are available for very little wagers. Keno is enjoyed at saloons, clubs and rec center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lotto games – horrible expectations.

Rationally, Keno hit upon its way into casinos on the internet as it was a simple game to develop, and internet casino owners wanted to capture the giant land based Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favour of casinos on the internet was that many people were used to betting on Keno on electronic screens, so the move online was less of a hurdle than say with vingt-et-un.

So here is how you enjoy Keno. You begin by selecting between 4 and ten numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each choice is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase different tickets for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre-buy for upcoming games.

Once you have submitted your selection, twenty numbered balls will "enter" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your numbers are selected, you win. That is all there is. You will obviously come away with more, if more of your numbers hit, like with lottos.

Most internet keno games allow you to purchase cards between 5 cents and five dollars, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot fortunes of up to $50,000 are not uncommon.

Simple? Yeah. So there should be a problem? Yes. The casino advantage with Keno is 30 percent or higher, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big shot the worst game you might possibly bet on. If you want a game of speculation gamble on slots.
