Keno is a game of pure luck and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought to the u.s. by Chinese expatriates in the 19th century. As with lottery games, it’s a very simple to wager, and it is attractive as large prizes are available for very minute wagers. Keno is gambled on at bars, clubs and recreation centers all over the globe today. Sadly it shares other similarities with lottery games – horrid odds.
Rationally, Keno worked its way into internet casinos as it was an easy game to develop, and betting house owners wanted to capture the big brick and mortar Keno players online. What helped even more for internet betting houses was that many individuals were used to betting on Keno on video screens, so the move on the internet was less of a hurdle than say with chemin de fer.
So here is how you bet on Keno. You begin by picking between 4 and ten numbers from a set of eighty numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In most online keno games, you can buy numerous tickets for the same draw, and in certain games you can even pre buy for future games.
As soon as you have submitted your choices, 20 numbered balls will "drop" into a tube from a bucket. If sufficient of your spots are picked, you win. That simple. You’ll certainly win more if more of your selected spots come up, like with lotteries. Most web keno games permit you to purchase tickets between five cents and $5, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. JackpotGrand prizes of up to 50,000 dollars are not unusual.
A breeze? Yeah. So there must be a catch? Absolutely. The casino edge with Keno is thirty percent or more, the absolute worst of any web casino game. The odds of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a long margin the most unfortunate casino game you could probably play. If you are wanting a game of chance gamble on video slots. If you like to toss money away, bet on Keno. Very few people actually make any meaningful earnings.
