It’s a consistently entertaining lottery-like game that’s a breeze to master, readily available in several assorted formats, and one that might yield millions for players who learn its countless subtle intricacies. But let’s start with the basic facts here.
When explaining keno to beginners, some betting experts compare it to bingo. This is at least to a certain degree apt, in that both games are generally numerical. However, to carry that comparison too far will be to detract from the good many unique characteristics that make keno so fun. Not like bingo, keno gamblers have the ability to select the numbers for every card.
Keno cards have a grand total of eighty numbers, but the user is granted an increased degree of personal responsibility by being able to decide on as numerous (or as few) numbers as she feels they need. And it doesn’t take a genius to figure out how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark all your selected numbers with a good oldpen like you had back in school.
Now that you have checked your numbers, take the card back to the clerk at the keno booth. The person will record those numbers and then give you a receipt. Make sure no to drop this (potentially) valuable piece of paper! Even if the keno pit manager remembers your loud shirt and wants help out, without a winning receipt in hand, you will win exactly $.00 for your efforts.
And there you have strategy #1: always be sure to keep your keno slip. Let’s advance to something a bit more complicated, what do you think?
Now that you’ve marked your numbers, get yourself into a comfy keno booth and see the action happen on the video monitor. That’s where the winning numbers are shown in lights. If you’ve got winners, mark your card aptly. Sake care not to dally, or sit there praising yourself for an obnoxious length of time. You must get up to the keno booth to get your winnings, since a new drawing will likely start up within 5 minutes.
Strategy number 2: always get back to the keno stand on time!
Assuming you can not trust yourself to meet that 5 minute deadline each time, you always retain the option of buying a "multi-race" card. These include the self same set of your chosen numbers on anywhere from two to 20 slips. When the maximum number of rounds (the same as the number of tickets) is completed, you should then get off your lazy bum and go collect your winnings.
Another option is known as a "stray and play" keno slip, which usually lets you make number choices for 30 keno games or more. Hell, you can take a Swedish massage and not have to get uptight about getting back in time to retrieve your winnings. Most "stray and play" cards are good for up to a whole year after it’s purchased!
So now you have learned a number of needed techniques for winning keno. If you are a knowledgeable player, they may appear to be stupidly obvious. But it does not hurt to study up on the basics, and if you are a new gambler, every tiny bit of direction will help make your keno wagering more exciting.
