Keno is a game of pure chance and is very close to Lotto games. The game was brought over to the US by Chinese newcomers in the 19th century. As with lotto games, it’s an absolutely easy to enjoy, and it is appealing as big jackpots are offered for very tiny wagers. Keno is enjoyed at taverns, clubs and civic center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lotto games – terrible expectations.

Sensibly, Keno found its way into online casinos as it was an easy game to build, and online casino operators wanted to ensnare the giant land based Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many gamblers were accustomed to betting on Keno on electronic screens, so the move online was a insignificant barrier than say with blackjack.

So here is how you play Keno. You begin by selecting between four and 10 numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can buy many cards for the same draw, and in a few games you can even pre-order for upcoming games.

After you have submitted your selection, twenty balls with numbers will "drop" into a capsule from a barrel. If enough of your spots are drawn, you win. It’s that easy. You will obviously gain more, if more of your spots hit, like with lottos.

Most online keno games allow you to purchase tickets between 5 cents and five dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot fortunes of up to $50,000 are not uncommon.

Simple? Yeah. So there has to be a catch? Yes. The casino advantage with Keno is 30 percent or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a long shot the atrocious game you could possibly wager on. If you are seeking a game of speculation play slots.
