Keno is a game of pure speculation and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought over to the the states by Chinese immigrants in the nineteenth century. As with lottery games, it is a dead easy to play, and it is enjoyable as big fortunes are offered for very tiny bets. Keno is played at lounges, clubs and rec center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lotto games – horrid odds.
Logically, Keno happen upon its way into casinos on the internet as it was a simple game to build, and online casino owners wanted to ensnare the large land based Keno fan base online. What was even more in the favour of internet casinos was that many players were used to betting on Keno on electronic screens, so the move on to the internet was less of a encumbrance than say with twenty-one.
So here is how you play Keno. You start off by selecting between four and 10 numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each choice 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 upcoming games.
After you have submitted your choices, 20 numbered balls will "enter" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your numbers are picked, you win. That simple. You will obviously gain more, if more of your spots come up, like with lottos.
Most keno internet games allow you to buy tickets between 5 cents and $5, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot fortunes of up to $50,000 are not uncommon.
Easy? Yes. So there has to be a catch? Absolutely. The casino advantage with Keno is thirty percent or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of landing on a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a wide shot the worst game you could possibly gamble on. If you are seeking a game of chance gamble on slot machines.
