Keno is a game of pure chance and is very close to Lotto games. The game was brought to the US of A by Chinese immigrants in the nineteenth century. As with lotto games, it is a dead simple to enjoy, and it is enchanting as big fortunes are offered for very small wagers. Keno is enjoyed at lounges, clubs and civic center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another similarity with lotto games – terrible odds.

Rationally, Keno found its way into online casinos as it was a simple game to establish, and internet casino software owners wanted to entice the giant brick and mortar Keno fan base online. What was even more in the favor of online casinos was that many players were used to gambling on Keno on video terminals, so the move online was hardly a problem than say with 21.

So here is how you play Keno. You begin by selecting between 4 and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is referred to as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can buy different tickets for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre purchase for games in the future.

Once you have submitted your choices, 20 balls with numbers will "enter" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your spots are selected, you win. That’s all there is. You will obviously gain more, if more of your numbers hit, like with lotteries.

Most online keno games allow you to buy tickets between 5c and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot prizes of up to 50,000 dollars are not uncommon.

Easy? Yeah. So there must be a catch? Yeah. The casino edge with Keno is thirty percent or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The chances of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a long shot the awful game you can possibly play. If you want a game of chance gamble on slot machines.
