Keno is a game of pure chance and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought to the U.S. by Chinese immigrants in the nineteenth century. As with lottery games, it is a very easy to enjoy, and it is attractive as substantial fortunes are available for very small wagers. Keno is played at lounges, clubs and civic center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another similarity with lotto games – terrible odds.

Logically, Keno happen upon its way into online casinos as it was an easy game to create, and internet casino software owners wanted to entice the giant land based Keno players online. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many people were accustomed to gambling on Keno on video terminals, so the move online was less of a problem than say with 21.

So here is how you play Keno. You begin by selecting between four and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase different cards for the same draw, and in some games you can even pre-order for upcoming games.

Once you have submitted your choices, 20 numbered balls will "drop" into a capsule from a barrel. If enough of your spots are drawn, you win. That is all there is. You will obviously gain more, if more of your spots come up, like with lotteries.

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

Simple? Yeah. So there has to be a catch? Yeah. The gambling casino advantage with Keno is thirty percent or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of landing on a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a long margin the worst game you might possibly play. If you want a game of speculation play slot machines.
