Keno is a game of pure chance and is very close to Lotto games. The game was brought to the America by Chinese newcomers in the nineteenth century. As with lottery games, it’s an absolutely simple to enjoy, and it is enchanting as big prizes are offered for very little wagers. Keno is enjoyed at lounges, clubs and civic center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another characteristic with lotto games – horrible odds.
Understandably, Keno hit upon its way into online casinos as it was a simple game to establish, and online casino software owners wanted to capture the giant brick and mortar Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many people were used to playing Keno on electronic terminals, so the move online was hardly a hurdle than say with vingt-et-un.
So here is how you play Keno. You begin by appointing between four and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is referred to as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase different tickets for the same draw, and in some games you can even pre-order for future games.
After you have submitted your selection, twenty balls with numbers will "enter" into a capsule from a barrel. If enough of your spots are picked, you win. It is that easy. You will obviously come away with more, if more of your spots appear, like with lottos.
Most internet keno games allow you to buy cards between 5 cents and $5, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot winnings of up to $50 000 are not uncommon.
Simple? Yeah. So there has to be a catch? Yes. The casino advantage with Keno is 30% or greater, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a long shot the awful game you might possibly wager on. If you are looking for a game of luck gamble on slot machines.
