Keno is a game of pure chance and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought over to the U.S. by Chinese immigrants in the 19th century. As with lotto games, it’s a very simple to play, and it is endearing as substantial jackpots are available for very tiny wagers. Keno is enjoyed at lounges, clubs and civic center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another similarity with lottery games – terrible expectations.

Sensibly, Keno hit upon its way into online casinos as it was a simple game to create, and internet casino owners wanted to catch the huge land based Keno players online. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many gamblers were used to gambling on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move on to the internet was hardly a problem than say with blackjack.

So here is how you play Keno. You begin by choosing between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is describe as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can buy different cards for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre-order for upcoming games.

After you have submitted your selection, twenty balls with numbers will "enter" into a capsule from a barrel. If enough of your spots are drawn, you win. It’s that easy. You will obviously come away with more, if more of your spots come up, like with lottos.

Most keno online games allow you to buy tickets between 5c and five dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot prizes of up to 50 000 dollars are not uncommon.

Easy? Yes. So there must be a catch? Yes. The casino advantage with Keno is 30% or higher, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a long margin the worst game you could possibly wager on. If you are seeking a game of speculation play slots.
