Keno is a game of pure luck and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought to the U.S.A by Chinese newcomers in the 19th century. As with lotto games, it’s an absolutely simple to play, and it is enjoyable as large prizes are available for very small bets. Keno is enjoyed at taverns, clubs and rec center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lottery games – terrible expectations.

Understandably, Keno ensconced its way into online casinos as it was an easy game to develop, and casino software operators wanted to entice the big brick and mortar Keno players online. What was even more in the favour of internet casinos was that many players were accustomed to betting on Keno on video terminals, so the move online was less of a hurdle than say with chemin de fer.

So here is how you play Keno. You start off by choosing between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each choice is called a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase different cards for the same draw, and in a few games you can even pre purchase for games in the future.

After you have submitted your choices, twenty numbered balls will "enter" into a capsule from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are selected, you win. That simple. You will obviously earn more, if more of your spots come up, like with lottos.

Most keno internet games allow you to buy cards between 5 cents and $5, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot fortunes of up to 50,000 dollars are not uncommon.

Easy? Absolutely. So there has to be a problem? Yes. The gambling casino advantage with Keno is 30% or more, the WORST of any online casino game. The chances of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a big shot the worst game you could possibly wager on. If you are wanting a game of chance play slot machines.
