Keno is a game of pure chance and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought over to the USA by Chinese immigrants in the 19th century. As with lottery games, it is a dead simple to play, and it is attractive as substantial fortunes are available for very tiny bets. Keno is played at lounges, clubs and community centers all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lotto games – horrendous expectations.

Sensibly, Keno ensconced its way into casinos on the internet as it was an easy game to develop, and online casino software operators wanted to capture the large brick and mortar Keno players online. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many gamblers were accustomed to wagering on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move online was hardly a 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 choice is called a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can buy multiple tickets for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre purchase for future games.

After you have submitted your selection, 20 numbered balls will "enter" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are selected, you win. That simple. You will obviously win more, if more of your numbers are landed on, like with lottos.

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

Simple? Yes. So there must be a problem? Absolutely. The house edge with Keno is 30 percent or higher, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a big margin the atrocious game you could possibly wager on. If you are seeking a game of luck play slots.
