In many internet keno games, you can purchase countless cards for the same draw, and in a handful games you can even pre-order for games in the future.
After you have submitted your choices, twenty balls with numbers will "drop" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your spots are picked, you win. It is that easy. You will obviously win more, if more of your numbers are landed on, like with lottos.
Most online keno games allow you to buy tickets between five cents and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot prizes of up to $50 000 are not uncommon.
