Keno is a game of pure luck and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought to the USA by Chinese newcomers in the nineteenth aeon. As with lottery games, it’s a very easy to play, and it is attractive as substantial prizes are offered for very little wagers. Keno is played at taverns, clubs and community centers all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lotto games – horrid expectations.
Logically, Keno ensconced its way into online casinos as it was an easy game to establish, and internet casino software owners wanted to capture the giant brick and mortar Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favor of internet casinos was that many gamblers were accustomed to betting on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move on to the internet was a insignificant encumbrance than say with blackjack.
So here is how you enjoy Keno. You start off by choosing between 4 and ten numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is referred to as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase countless tickets for the same draw, and in some games you can even pre purchase for games in the future.
Once you have submitted your selection, twenty numbered balls will "enter" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. It is that easy. You will obviously gain more, if more of your spots appear, like with lottos.
Most online keno games allow you to buy tickets between 5 cents and $5, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot prizes of up to $50 000 are not uncommon.
Simple? Absolutely. So there should be a problem? Yes. The house advantage with Keno is thirty percent or greater, the WORST of any internet casino game. The chances of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big shot the atrocious game you could possibly wager on. If you are wanting a game of chance play slot machines.
