Keno is a game of pure randomness and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought to the USA by Chinese immigrants in the nineteenth century. As with lottery games, it is a dead simple to enjoy, and it is attractive as substantial prizes are available for very tiny bets. Keno is enjoyed at bars, clubs and recreation center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lotto games – horrid odds.
By reason, Keno found its way into internet casinos as it was an easy game to build, and online casino software owners wanted to catch the giant land based Keno fan base online. What was even more in the favor 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 barrier than say with vingt-et-un.
So here is how you enjoy Keno. You start off by selecting between four and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy countless tickets for the same draw, and in some games you can even pre purchase for future games.
Once you have submitted your selection, 20 numbered balls will "drop" into a capsule from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are selected, you win. It is that easy. You will obviously come away with more, if more of your numbers come up, like with lottos.
Most online keno games allow you to buy tickets between 5 cents and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot fortunes of up to 50,000 dollars are not uncommon.
Simple? Yes. So there must be a catch? Yes. The gambling casino edge with Keno is thirty percent or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a long margin the awful game you could possibly gamble on. If you are seeking a game of luck gamble on slot machines.
