It might not generally be considered the most lucrative game in the world of gambling, but keno has massive amounts of dedicated enthusiasts. And why not? It’s a constantly thrilling lottery-style game that’s simple to pickup, abundantly available in loads of different variations, and one that will return mega-dollars for players who master its endless subtle intricacies. But let’s begin with the basic rules for now.

When describing keno to newcomers, some betting masters compare it to lotto. This is at least in part apt, in that each game is basically numerical. However, to take that comparison too far would be to underestimate the good many unique aspect that make keno so entertaining. Not like bingo, keno players have the freedom to select the numbers for each and every card.

Keno cards have a total of 80 numbers, but the gambler is granted an increased level of personal responsibility by being able to choose as many (or as few) numbers as he desires. And it doesn’t take a nuclear physicist to determine how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark all of your picked numbers with a good oldmarker like you used back in school.

After you’ve checked your numbers, carry the card back to the girl at the keno booth. The nice person will record those numbers and then give you a receipt. Make sure no to lose this (potentially) expensive piece of paper! Even if the keno pit manager remembers your mug and wants help out, without a winning ticket on you, you will get exactly $.00 for your winning card.

Now there you have strategy number one: always be sure to keep your keno slip. Let’s go on to something a little bit more advanced, ok?

Now that you’ve marked your numbers, get yourself into a comfy keno booth and watch the action happen on the screen. This is where the winning numbers are displayed for all to see. If you picked winners, mark your card appropriately. Make sure not to take your time, or sit there praising yourself for too great a length of time. You must get back to the keno stand to redeem your winnings, and then a new keno game will almost certainly begin within a few minutes.

Strategy number 2: always get back to the keno booth on time!

Assuming you can not trust yourself to make that five-minute margin each and every time, you always have the option of purchasing a "multi-race" card. These include the very same set of your selected numbers on anywhere from 2 to twenty slips. When the maximum number of games (fitting the amount of tickets) is played out, you can then get off your numb back side and go redeem your winnings.

Still another option is known as a "stray and play" keno slip, which commonly lets you make number selection for thirty keno rounds or more. Hell, you can take vacation to France and not have to get uptight about getting back in time to redeem your numbers. Most "stray and play" slips are good for up to a whole year after it’s bought!

And now you know a couple of essential methods for winning keno. If you are a knowledgeable player, they may appear to be incredibly obvious. However, it won’t hurt to study up on the basics, and if you are a novice keno player, every bit of direction will help make your keno playing more enjoyable.
