Keno is a game of pure chance and is very close to Lotto games. The game was brought over to the U.S.A by Chinese newcomers in the 19th century. As with lotto games, it is a dead simple to enjoy, and it is endearing as big jackpots are offered for very little bets. Keno is played at lounges, clubs and community centers all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lotto games – terrible expectations.

Sensibly, Keno ensconced its way into casinos on the internet as it was a simple game to build, and online casino software owners wanted to entice the huge brick and mortar Keno fan base online. What was even more in the favor of internet casinos was that many players were used to wagering on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move online was hardly a hurdle than say with chemin de fer.

So here is how you play Keno. You start off by selecting between four and ten numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each choice is describe as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase multiple cards for the same draw, and in a few games you can even pre-order for games in the future.

Once you have submitted your selection, twenty balls with numbers will "drop" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your numbers are selected, you win. It’s that easy. You will obviously amass more, if more of your numbers surface, like with lotteries.

Most online keno games allow you to purchase tickets between 5c and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot prizes of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.

Simple? Absolutely. So there has to be a problem? Absolutely. The house edge with Keno is 30 percent or higher, the WORST of any internet casino game. The chances of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big margin the worst game you could possibly play. If you are seeking a game of randomness wager on slot machines.
