Keno is a game of pure chance and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought over to the U.S.A by Chinese immigrants in the nineteenth aeon. As with lotto games, it’s an absolutely simple to play, and it is enjoyable as big prizes are offered for very little bets. Keno is played at bars, clubs and community centers all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lotto games – horrendous expectations.
Sensibly, Keno hit upon its way into casinos on the internet as it was an easy game to create, and internet casino operators wanted to catch the large land based Keno fan base online. What was even more in the favor of online casinos was that many gamblers were used to gambling on Keno on video screens, so the move online was less of a barrier than say with twenty-one.
So here is how you enjoy Keno. You start off by appointing between four and 10 numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase many tickets for the same draw, and in some games you can even pre-order for games in the future.
After you have submitted your selection, 20 numbered balls will "enter" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are picked, you win. That is all there is. You will obviously win more, if more of your spots are landed on, like with lottos.
Most online keno games allow you to buy cards between five cents and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot prizes of up to $50,000 are not uncommon.
Easy? Yes. So there must be a problem? Absolutely. The casino advantage with Keno is 30 percent or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big margin the atrocious game you might possibly wager on. If you want a game of chance bet on slots.
