Keno was created in two hundred before Christ by the Chinese military commander, Cheung Leung who utilized this game as a financial resource for his declining army. The metropolis of Cheung was waging a battle, and after some time appeared to be facing national famine with the dramatic decrease in supplies. Cheung Leung had to create a fast response for the financial disaster and to create revenue for his military. He, as it follows created the game we now know as keno and it was a great success.

Keno was known as the White Pigeon Game, due to the fact that the winning numbers were broadcast by pigeons from bigger cities to the lesser towns. The lottery ‘Keno’ was brought to the United States in the 19th century by Chinese migrants who headed to the US to work. In those times, Keno used 120 numbers.

Today, Keno is most often played with 80 numbers in most of American brick and mortar casinos as well as web casinos. Keno is commonly played today because of the laid back nature of playing the game and the basic fact that there are little skills required to enjoy Keno. Despite the reality that the chances of succeeding are horrible, there is always the chance that you will hit quite large with very little gaming investment.

Keno is enjoyed with 80 numbers with twenty numbers picked each game. Enthusiasts of Keno can select from 2 to 10 numbers and wager on them, whatever amount they want to. The pay out of Keno is dependent on the wagers made and the matching of numbers.

Keno grew in acceptance in the United States near the end of the 1800’s when the Chinese characters were changed with more familiar, US numbers. Lottos were not covered under the laws of gambling in Nevada State in Nineteen Thirty One. The casinos renamed the ‘Chinese lotto’ to ‘horse race keno’ utilizing the notion that the numbers are horses and you want your horses to place. When a law passed that levied a tax on off track betting, Nevada casinos swiftly changed the name to ‘Keno’.
