It may not often be deemed the funnest game in the field of betting, but keno has tons of devout players. And so it should! It’s a always entertaining lotto-esque game that’s simple to master, readily available in a number of assorted formats, and one that might yield millions for people who master its limitless subtle nuances. But let’s deal with the beginner’s rules for now.
When describing keno to newbies, some wagering pros compare it to the lottery. This is at least in some ways apt, in that each game is essentially numerical. But to carry that comparison too far would be to devalue the good many unique characteristics that make keno so compelling. Unlike bingo, keno users have the freedom to choose the numbers for each card.
Keno cards have a total of 80 numbers, but the user is granted an additional degree of personal responsibility by being able to determine as many (or as few) numbers as he or she desires. And it doesn’t take a doctor of keno to determine how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark each of your desired numbers with a good oldpen like you had back in school.
Now that you’ve picked your numbers, carry the game card back to the girl at the keno stand. The clerk will record those numbers and then hand you a receipt. Don’t lose this (potentially) expensive bit of paper! Even if the keno pit manager remembers you and wants help out, without a winning receipt in hand, you will get precisely $.00 for your actions.
OK, so there you have strategy #1: always be sure to keep your keno receipt. Let us move on to something a little more complicated, what do you think?
Once you’ve marked your numbers, get yourself into a comfy keno booth and see the action take place on the video monitor. That is where the winning numbers are shown for all to see. If you checked winners, mark your card appropriately. Be sure not to take your time, or sit there praising yourself for too great a length of time. You want to get up to the keno booth to collect your winnings, since a new drawing will probably get going within five minutes.
Strategy number 2: always make it back to the keno stand on time!
Assuming you don’t trust yourself to make that five-minute margin every time, you always have the option of buying a "multi-race" ticket. These include the same set of your picked numbers on anywhere from 2 to 20 cards. When the maximum number of rounds (the same as the number of tickets) is completed, you should then get off your numb back side and go get your winnings.
Still another alternative is known as a "stray and play" keno ticket, which usually lets you make number selection for thirty games or more. Golly, you can take vacation to France and not have to get uptight about getting back in time to collect your winnings. Most "stray and play" game cards are good for up to a whole year after it’s purchased!
And now you have learned a few indispensable methods for winning keno. If you are a discerning user, they might seem to be stupidly obvious. But it does not hurt to bone up on the fundamentals, and if you are a novice user, every bit of advice will help make your keno games more entertaining.
