Keno was created in two hundred before Christ by the Chinese military leader, Cheung Leung who used keno as a financial resource for his failing army. The metropolis of Cheung was at war, and after a bit of time appeared to be looking at a national famine with the excessive decrease in supplies. Cheung Leung had to come up with a fast fix for the economic disaster and to acquire money for his army. He therefore created the game we know today as keno and it was a great success.

Keno once was known as the White Pigeon Game, since the winning numbers were delivered by pigeons from bigger municipalities to the lesser villages. The lottery ‘Keno’ was brought to America in the 1800s by Chinese immigrants who migrated to the United States to work. In those times, Keno used one hundred and twenty numbers.

Keno grew in acceptance in the US near the close of the 19th century when the Chinese characters were changed with more familiar, American numbers. Lotteries were not covered under the legalization of gambling in the state of Nevada in 1931. The casinos altered the name of the ‘Chinese lottery’ to ‘horse race keno’ utilizing the concept that the numbers are horses and you are looking for your horses to come in. When a law passed that taxed off track gambling, Nevada casinos quickly changed the name to ‘Keno’.
