Keno is a game of pure speculation and is very close to Lotto games. The game was brought to the U.S. by Chinese immigrants in the 19th aeon. As with lotto games, it’s an absolutely simple to play, and it is enjoyable as big jackpots are offered for very small wagers. Keno is played at bars, clubs and community centers all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lotto games – horrible expectations.
Logically, Keno ensconced its way into internet casinos as it was an easy game to build, and internet casino owners wanted to ensnare the large brick and mortar Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favour of internet casinos was that many players were used to gambling 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 start off by appointing between four and ten numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy multiple tickets for the same draw, and in a handful games you can even pre purchase for games in the future.
After you have submitted your choices, twenty balls with numbers will "enter" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your spots are picked, you win. That simple. You will obviously amass more, if more of your spots are landed on, like with lotteries.
Most online keno games allow you to buy tickets between 5c and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot winnings of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.
Easy? Yeah. So there must be a catch? Yes. The house edge with Keno is 30% or higher, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a big margin the worst game you can possibly play. If you are seeking a game of randomness play slot machines.
