Keno is a game of pure randomness and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought over to the the states by Chinese migrants in the 19th century. As with lottery games, it is a dead simple to play, and it is appealing as big jackpots are available for very little wagers. Keno is enjoyed at taverns, clubs and rec center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another similarity with lotto games – horrendous odds.
By reason, Keno hit upon its way into casinos on the internet as it was a simple game to establish, and casino software owners wanted to entice the large brick and mortar Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many gamblers were used to gambling on Keno on video terminals, so the move online was hardly a hurdle than say with 21.
So here is how you play Keno. You start off by choosing between four and 10 numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is referred to as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy many tickets for the same draw, and in a handful games you can even pre purchase for future games.
After you have submitted your selection, twenty numbered balls will "drop" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your spots are selected, you win. That is all there is. You will obviously gain more, if more of your numbers hit, like with lottos.
Most internet keno games allow you to purchase tickets between 5 cents and five dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot fortunes of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.
Easy? Absolutely. So there must be a problem? Absolutely. The house edge with Keno is 30 percent or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big shot the atrocious game you could possibly gamble on. If you are looking for a game of luck wager on slots.
