Keno is a game of pure chance and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought to the US by Chinese newcomers in the 19th century. As with lotto games, it’s a very simple to enjoy, and it is enjoyable as large prizes are available for very tiny wagers. Keno is played at bars, clubs and civic center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another similarity with lotto games – horrid expectations.
By reason, Keno happen upon its way into online casinos as it was an easy game to develop, and internet casino software owners wanted to ensnare the giant land based Keno players online. What was even more in the favor of online casinos was that many people were accustomed to gambling on Keno on electronic screens, so the move on to the internet was hardly a barrier than say with 21.
So here is how you play Keno. You begin by selecting between four and 10 numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each choice is referred to as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase multiple cards for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre purchase for games in the future.
Once you have submitted your choices, 20 balls with numbers will "drop" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your spots are picked, you win. That simple. You will obviously come away with more, if more of your numbers hit, like with lottos.
Most online keno games allow you to buy cards between 5c and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot winnings of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.
Simple? Absolutely. So there should be a problem? Absolutely. The casino advantage with Keno is 30 percent or higher, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a wide margin the atrocious game you might possibly wager on. If you are looking for a game of chance play slot machines.
