Keno is a game you either have knowledge of or you don’t. It is basically considered a lotto in the casino. Like the lotto, the game is made up of numbers being selected. The goal is to pick the numbers that will be drawn. The game of Keno can be either fast or slow depending on the casino. By wagering on Keno on the web you can set the pace of the game. Personally, I like real life keno. You relax in a lounge, if you like, and play. Keno is a game that you don’t need to be in the lounge to participate and win. For instance, you can put in a ticket for twenty games and then head off to compete in another game in the casino or even your room if you are staying in the casino.
Keno Board
The game is wagered on on a game board. The Keno game board consists of 80 total numbers – numbered 1 though 80. The top 40 are referred to as the top half and the second forty are called the bottom half.
Participating in Keno
Every game of Keno goes the same. The round starts, and twenty numbers are picked. They may be using the ball system. Ping pong style balls are sucked up and selected, just like the lotto on TV. Some other casinos use pc’s. If a number you checked is selected, that is referred to as a "hit." When all 20 numbers have been selected, the round concludes and winning tickets are paid-out.
There is a fair amount of diversity in the game of Keno. For instance, you might select just one number, two numbers and so on up to twenty numbers. Typically, you need to hit most of your numbers to come away with anything. For example, if you pick 6 numbers, you will normally have to get 3 to get your cash back.
Keno Payouts
The pay outs in Keno are pretty big. The odds of getting a win is dependent on the total numbers marked. For instance, if you pick 2 numbers, you have a 6% chance of hitting your ticket. Every casino has their very own payouts. If you are going to play online, be sure you look everywhere for the best pay outs first.
