Keno is a game of pure chance and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought to the USA by Chinese expatriates in the 19th century. As with lottery games, it is a very easy to enjoy, and it is enjoyable as big prizes are available for very tiny bets. Keno is played at bars, clubs and recreation center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lottery games – horrendous odds.
Sensibly, Keno ensconced its way into internet casinos as it was an easy game to develop, and internet casino owners wanted to catch the large land based Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favour of casinos on the internet was that many players were used to betting on Keno on electronic screens, so the move online was hardly a encumbrance than say with chemin de fer.
So here is how you enjoy Keno. You start off by choosing between four and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is referred to as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase multiple cards for the same draw, and in some games you can even pre-order for future games.
Once you have submitted your selection, twenty balls with numbers will "enter" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. That simple. You will obviously gain more, if more of your numbers hit, like with lottos.
Most keno internet games allow you to purchase tickets between five cents and five dollars, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot prizes of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.
Simple? Yeah. So there has to be a catch? Absolutely. The casino edge with Keno is 30% or higher, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big margin the worst game you could possibly play. If you are looking for a game of speculation play slots.
