It won’t commonly be deemed the sexiest game in the field of gaming, but keno has huge amounts of passionate fans. As well it should! It’s a always exciting lottery-like game that’s uncomplicated to master, readily available in several assorted styles, and one that can return millions of dollars for those who master its innumerable subtle rules. But let’s deal with the basics here.

When explaining keno to novices, some wagering connoisseurs compare it to bingo. This is at least in part apt, in that each game is essentially numerical. However, to take that comparison too far will be to devalue the good many unique traits that make keno so fun. Not like bingo, keno enthusiasts have the freedom to choose the numbers for each and every card.

Keno cards have a grand total of eighty numbers, but the user is furnished with an increased level of personal responsibility by being able to decide on as numerous (or as few) numbers as he or she wants. And it doesn’t take a nuclear physicist to come up with how to fill out a card: all you do is circle or otherwise mark each of your desired numbers with a standardball point pen like you used when you were in third grade.

After you’ve checked your numbers, carry the keno card back to the nice person at the keno stand. The clerk will record your numbers and then hand you a receipt. Do not misplace this (potentially) expensive bit of paper! Even if the clerk remembers your loud shirt and wants help out, without a winning ticket on you, you will win precisely $.00 for your winning card.

Ok, there you have strategy numero uno: always make sure to keep your keno receipt. Let’s advance to something a little bit more advanced, yes?

After you’ve picked out your numbers, get yourself into a comfy keno booth and observe the action happen on the keno monitor. That is where the winning numbers are displayed for all to see. If you selected winning numbers, mark your card appropriately. Be sure not to dilly dally, or sit there congratulating yourself for too great a length of time. You need to get back to the keno stand to collect your winnings, and then a new round of keno will most likely start up within five minutes.

Strategy number 2: always be sure to get back to the keno booth on time!

Since you can’t trust yourself to meet that 5 minute margin each time, you always have the option of purchasing a "multi-race" ticket. These include the same set of your picked numbers on anywhere from 2 to 20 slips. When the max number of keno games (the same as the amount of tickets) is completed, you will then be able to get off your lazy rump and go get your winnings.

Another option is known as a "stray and play" keno ticket, which usually lets you make number selection for 30 keno games or more. Gosh, you can take a world tour and not have to worry about getting back in time to get your winnings. Most "stray and play" cards are good for up to a whole year after it’s purchased!

And now you know a number of required methods for winning keno. If you are a skillful user, they might seem quite obvious. Still, it will not hurt to study up on the basics, and if you are a novice gambler, every little bit of advice will help make your keno games more agreeable.
