It might not generally be thought of as the most lucrative game in the arena of gambling, but keno has millions and millions of steadfast supporters. And it ought to! It’s a always exciting lotto-esque game that’s simple to learn, abundantly available in a number of different formats, and one that will return millions for gamblers who master its many subtle rules. But let’s deal with the basic rules here.
When explaining keno to newbies, some betting pros compare it to bingo. This is at least to a certain extent apt, in that both games are generally numerical. Yet to take that comparison too far is likely to be to undervalue the endless unique characteristics that make keno so fun. Not like bingo, keno players have the freedom to select the numbers for every card.
Keno cards have a total of 80 numbers, but the gambler is granted an extra degree of personal responsibility by being able to decide on as many (or as few) numbers as she needs. And it doesn’t take a keno superstar to determine how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark all your picked numbers with a normalpen like you had back in the day.
After you’ve marked your numbers, take your keno card back to the person at the keno stand. The keno pit manager will record your numbers and then give you a receipt. Make sure no to misplace this (potentially) valuable bit of paper! Even if the keno pit manager remembers your pretty face and wants help out, without a winning ticket with you, you will get exactly $.00 for your actions.
Now there you have strategy numero uno: always take care to keep your keno receipt. Let us move to something a little more useful, ok?
Once you’ve picked your numbers, get yourself into a nice keno booth and see the action unfold on the keno monitor. That’s where the winning numbers appear for us. If you have winning numbers, mark your card accordingly. Make sure not to take your time, or sit there praising yourself for an obnoxious length of time. You really want to get back to the keno stand to redeem your winnings, and then a new keno game will almost certainly start within 5 minutes.
Strategy number two: always get back to the keno stand on time!
Since you do not trust yourself to beat that five-minute deadline each time, you always retain the option of purchasing a "multi-race" card. These include the same set of your handpicked numbers on anywhere from 2 to twenty tickets. When the maximum amount of games (the same as the number of tickets) is played out, you are then able to get off your lazy back side and go get your winnings.
Still another option is known as a "stray and play" keno slip, which commonly allows you make number picks for thirty keno rounds or more. Golly, you can take vacation to Italy and not have to fret about getting back in time to get your winnings. Most "stray and play" game tickets are good for up to a whole year after you by it!
And now you have learned a few needed schemes for winning keno. If you are an adept keno player, they might appear to be quite obvious. Still, it doesn’t hurt to bone up on the basic techniques, and if you are a novice gambler, every little bit of information will help make your keno gambling more enjoyable.
