It might not commonly be considered the best game in the field of gaming, but keno has millions and millions of devout players. And so it should! It’s a constantly thrilling lotto-esque game that’s simple to pickup, readily available in many alternate formats, and one that may yield mega-dollars for people who learn its innumerable subtle rules. But let’s begin with the basics here.

When defining keno to amateurs, some betting experts compare it to bingo. This is at least to a certain degree apt, in that both games are fundamentally numerical. But to take that comparison too far might be to belittle the many unique traits that make keno so compelling. Not like bingo, keno enthusiasts have the ability to choose the numbers for every card.

Keno cards have a total of eighty numbers, but the player is accord an additional level of personal responsibility by being able to pick as many (or as few) numbers as he desires. And it doesn’t take a doctor of keno to figure out how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark each of your selected numbers with a good oldball point pen like you had when you were in grade 3.

After you’ve selected your numbers, carry the keno card back to the clerk at the keno stand. The nice person will record your numbers and then hand you a receipt. Don’t misplace this (potentially) lucrative bit of paper! Even if the clerk remembers your pretty face and wants help out, without a winning slip in hand, you will get exactly $.00 for your time spent.

Ok, there you have strategy number one: always be sure to keep your keno receipt. Let’s move to something a bit more complicated, what do you think?

After you’ve checked off your numbers, get into a comfortable keno booth and watch the action take place on a big video monitor. That is where the winning numbers are displayed for us. If you’ve got winning numbers, mark your card aptly. Make sure not to dilly dally, or sit there congratulating yourself for an obnoxious length of time. You are required to get back to the keno stand to get your winnings, and then a new drawing will most likely start within a few minutes.

Strategy number two: always get back to the keno stand on time!

Since you do not trust yourself to make that 5 minute deadline each and every time, you always have the option of purchasing a "multi-race" ticket. These include the very same set of your picked numbers on anywhere from two to twenty cards. When the maximum amount of games (matching the amount of tickets) is played out, you should then get off your lazy rump and go collect your winnings.

Another choice is recognized as a "stray and play" keno ticket, which commonly lets you make number selection for thirty rounds or more. Gosh, you can take an ocean cruise and not have to get uptight about getting back in time to redeem your winnings. Most "stray and play" tickets are good for up to a whole year after it’s bought!

And now you are aware of a couple of required strategies for winning keno. If you are an adept keno player, they may appear to be stupidly obvious. However, it won’t hurt to bone up on the fundamentals, and if you are a beginner keno player, every little bit of advice will help make your keno experience more exciting.
