Keno is a game of pure luck and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought over to the USA by Chinese immigrants in the 19th aeon. As with lottery games, it is an absolutely easy to enjoy, and it is enchanting as big prizes are available for very small bets. Keno is played at lounges, clubs and community centers all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lottery games – horrible expectations.
Sensibly, Keno found its way into internet casinos as it was a simple game to create, and online casino software operators wanted to entice the giant brick and mortar Keno players online. What was even more in the favor of internet casinos was that many gamblers were used to playing Keno on electronic terminals, so the move on to the internet was a insignificant hurdle than say with vingt-et-un.
So here is how you enjoy Keno. You begin by selecting between four and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can buy countless tickets for the same draw, and in many 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 hopper from a tube. If enough of your spots are selected, you win. That simple. You will obviously earn more, if more of your numbers come up, like with lottos.
Most keno online games allow you to purchase tickets between 5c and $5, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot fortunes of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.
Easy? Yes. So there must be a catch? Absolutely. The gambling casino edge with Keno is thirty percent or more, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a wide margin the awful game you might possibly bet on. If you are wanting a game of luck gamble on slot machines.
