Keno was introduced in 200 before Christ by the Chinese military commander, Cheung Leung who utilized keno as a monetary resource for his declining forces. The city of Cheung was at war, and after a bit of time appeared to be looking at a country wide shortage of food with the excessive drop in supplies. Cheung Leung needed to create a fast response for the financial calamity and to acquire money for his military. He thusly developed the game we know today as keno and it was a fantastic success.

Keno was well-known as the White Pigeon Game, seeing as the winning numbers were delivered by pigeons from bigger locations to the smaller villages. The lotto ‘Keno’ was imported to America in the 19th century by Chinese immigrants who headed to the United States for work. In those times, Keno used 120 numbers.

Keno grew in popularity in the United States near the close of the 19th century when the Chinese letters were changed with more familiar, American numbers. Lottos weren’t covered under the legalization of gaming in the state of Nevada in Nineteen Thirty One. The casinos adjusted the name of the ‘Chinese lottery’ to ‘horse race keno’ utilizing the idea that the numbers are horses and you are looking for your horses to place. When the Nevada government passed a law that levied a tax on off track gambling, Nevada casinos quickly altered the name to ‘Keno’.
