Keno is a game of pure chance and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought over to the US of A by Chinese migrants in the nineteenth century. As with lotto games, it’s a dead simple to play, and it is attractive as large jackpots are available for very tiny bets. Keno is enjoyed at lounges, clubs and community centers all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lotto games – horrid odds.
Logically, Keno happen upon its way into casinos on the internet as it was a simple game to establish, and internet casino operators wanted to ensnare the giant land based Keno fan base online. What was even more in the favor of online casinos was that many players were accustomed to playing Keno on electronic screens, so the move online was less of a hurdle than say with vingt-et-un.
So here is how you play Keno. You start off by choosing between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each choice is describe as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy multiple cards for the same draw, and in a few games you can even pre purchase for upcoming games.
Once you have submitted your choices, 20 balls with numbers will "drop" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your spots are drawn, you win. It is that easy. You will obviously come away with more, if more of your spots are landed on, like with lottos.
Most keno internet games allow you to purchase cards between 5c and $5, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot fortunes of up to 50 000 dollars are not uncommon.
Simple? Absolutely. So there should be a problem? Yes. The casino advantage with Keno is thirty percent or higher, the WORST of any internet casino game. The chances of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big shot the worst game you could possibly gamble on. If you want a game of luck play slots.
