Keno is a game of pure luck and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought to the America by Chinese immigrants in the nineteenth century. As with lottery games, it is a dead simple to play, and it is appealing as substantial prizes are offered for very tiny wagers. Keno is played at lounges, clubs and rec center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lottery games – horrendous odds.

Understandably, Keno found its way into online casinos as it was a simple game to establish, and internet casino owners wanted to entice the giant brick and mortar Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favor of online casinos was that many gamblers were used to betting on Keno on electronic screens, so the move on to the internet was less of a problem than say with blackjack.

So here is how you enjoy Keno. You begin by choosing between four and 10 numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is describe as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase different tickets for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre purchase for future games.

After you have submitted your choices, 20 numbered balls will "drop" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your spots are picked, you win. That is all there is. You will obviously gain more, if more of your numbers appear, like with lotteries.

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

Easy? Yeah. So there should be a problem? Yes. The casino advantage with Keno is thirty percent or higher, the WORST of any online casino game. The chances of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a wide margin the worst game you can possibly bet on. If you are seeking a game of randomness play slot machines.
