Keno is a game of pure chance and is very close to Lotto games. The game was brought to the U.S.A by Chinese migrants in the nineteenth century. As with lottery games, it’s an absolutely simple to enjoy, and it is appealing as big fortunes are offered for very small wagers. Keno is enjoyed at saloons, clubs and rec center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another similarity with lotto games – terrible odds.
By reason, Keno found its way into casinos on the internet as it was a simple game to develop, and internet casino software operators wanted to catch the big brick and mortar Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favor of internet casinos was that many people were used to wagering on Keno on electronic screens, so the move on to the internet was hardly a encumbrance than say with chemin de fer.
So here is how you enjoy Keno. You start off by appointing between four and ten numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase different cards for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre purchase for upcoming games.
After you have submitted your selection, 20 numbered balls will "enter" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your spots are picked, you win. It’s that easy. You will obviously amass more, if more of your spots hit, like with lottos.
Most keno internet games allow you to buy cards between 5 cents and five dollars, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot winnings of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.
Easy? Yes. So there has to be a catch? Yes. The house advantage with Keno is 30% or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big shot the awful game you might possibly play. If you want a game of luck gamble on slot machines.
