Keno is a game of pure chance and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought over to the the states by Chinese migrants in the 19th aeon. As with lottery games, it is a very simple to play, and it is enjoyable as big fortunes are offered for very little wagers. Keno is played at taverns, clubs and recreation center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lottery games – horrid odds.
By reason, Keno ensconced its way into casinos on the internet as it was a simple game to build, and casino operators wanted to benefit from the large land based Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favour of internet casinos was that many players were used to betting on Keno on video terminals, so the move online was a insignificant hurdle than say with blackjack.
So here is how you play Keno. You begin by selecting between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each choice is referred to as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase multiple tickets for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre-buy for future games.
Once you have submitted your selection, twenty numbered balls will "drop" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your spots are picked, you win. That simple. You will obviously earn more, if more of your numbers hit, like with lotteries.
Most internet keno games allow you to purchase cards between five cents and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot winnings of up to $50,000 are not uncommon.
Simple? Yes. So there should be a problem? Yeah. The gambling casino edge with Keno is 30% or more, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a long shot the worst game you could possibly gamble on. If you are wanting a game of chance gamble on slots.
