Keno is a game of pure randomness and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought to the US of A by Chinese newcomers in the nineteenth aeon. As with lottery games, it’s a very easy to play, and it is appealing as big fortunes are available for very tiny bets. Keno is enjoyed at bars, clubs and civic center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lotto games – horrid expectations.
Understandably, Keno found its way into online casinos as it was an easy game to establish, and online casino owners wanted to entice the huge land based Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favor of internet casinos was that many gamblers were accustomed to wagering on Keno on video terminals, so the move on to the internet was hardly a hurdle than say with blackjack.
So here is how you play Keno. You begin by selecting between four and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase multiple cards for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre-buy for games in the future.
After you have submitted your selection, twenty numbered balls will "drop" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. That’s all there is. You will obviously win more, if more of your numbers are landed on, like with lottos.
Most online keno games allow you to buy tickets between 5 cents and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot fortunes of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.
Simple? Absolutely. So there has to be a problem? Absolutely. The gambling casino edge with Keno is thirty percent or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of landing on a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a wide shot the worst game you could possibly wager on. If you are seeking a game of randomness gamble on slots.
