Keno is a game of pure speculation and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought over to the U.S. by Chinese immigrants in the 19th century. As with lotto games, it is a very easy to enjoy, and it is enjoyable as big jackpots are available for very tiny bets. Keno is played at taverns, clubs and recreation center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another similarity with lottery games – terrible odds.
By reason, Keno happen upon its way into internet casinos as it was a simple game to build, and online casino operators wanted to catch the huge land based Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many gamblers were used to wagering on Keno on electronic screens, so the move online was a insignificant problem than say with twenty-one.
So here is how you enjoy Keno. You begin by selecting between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each choice is describe as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase multiple tickets for the same draw, and in a few games you can even pre-order for games in the future.
Once you have submitted your selection, twenty numbered balls will "enter" into a capsule from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are picked, you win. It is that easy. You will obviously gain more, if more of your numbers are landed on, like with lottos.
Most internet keno games allow you to purchase cards between five cents and $5, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot winnings of up to $50,000 are not uncommon.

Keno is by a big margin the awful game you can possibly wager on. If you are wanting a game of randomness bet on slot machines.
