Keno is a game of pure luck and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought to the US of A by Chinese expatriates in the nineteenth aeon. As with lotto games, it’s a dead simple to play, and it is enjoyable as large jackpots are available for very little wagers. Keno is enjoyed at lounges, clubs and community centers all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lottery games – horrendous odds.
Logically, Keno ensconced its way into internet casinos as it was a simple game to build, and internet casino software owners wanted to catch the big land based Keno players online. What was even more in the favor of casinos on the internet was that many people were accustomed to playing Keno on video terminals, so the move online was a insignificant barrier than say with twenty-one.
So here is how you play Keno. You start off by selecting between four and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each choice is called a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can buy countless cards for the same draw, and in a few games you can even pre purchase for upcoming games.
After you have submitted your choices, 20 numbered balls will "drop" into a capsule from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are selected, you win. It is that easy. You will obviously come away with more, if more of your numbers appear, like with lottos.
Most keno online games allow you to purchase cards between five cents and $5, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot winnings of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.
Easy? Yeah. So there has to be a catch? Yeah. The house advantage with Keno is 30% or more, the WORST of any online casino game. The chances of landing on a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a long shot the awful game you could possibly gamble on. If you are looking for a game of luck bet on slot machines.
