Keno is a game of pure randomness and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought to the America by Chinese expatriates in the 19th aeon. As with lottery games, it is a dead easy to play, and it is enjoyable as substantial prizes are available for very small bets. Keno is enjoyed at lounges, clubs and civic center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lotto games – horrible odds.

Rationally, Keno happen upon its way into online casinos as it was a simple game to create, and online casino operators wanted to entice the huge land based Keno fan base online. What was even more in the favour of internet casinos was that many gamblers were used to gambling on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move on to the internet was less of a problem than say with 21.

So here is how you play Keno. You start off by selecting between 4 and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy different cards for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre purchase for future games.

After you have submitted your selection, twenty numbered balls will "enter" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. It is that easy. You will obviously come away with more, if more of your numbers hit, like with lottos.

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

Easy? Yeah. So there should be a catch? Yeah. The casino edge with Keno is thirty percent or greater, the WORST of any internet casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a big margin the worst game you could possibly bet on. If you are looking for a game of speculation wager on slot machines.
