Ponder Carefully Before You Bet on Keno

[ English ]

Keno is a game of pure chance and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought over to the US by Chinese expatriates in the 19th century. As with lotto games, it’s a dead easy to enjoy, and it is attractive as large jackpots are offered for very small bets. Keno is played at saloons, clubs and community centers all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lotto games – terrible odds.

Sensibly, Keno found its way into internet casinos as it was a simple game to build, and internet casino software operators wanted to entice the huge brick and mortar Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many players were used to gambling on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move online was a insignificant barrier than say with chemin de fer.

So here is how you enjoy Keno. You start off by choosing between 4 and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each choice is describe as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy multiple tickets for the same draw, and in some games you can even pre-order for upcoming games.

After you have submitted your selection, twenty numbered balls will "drop" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your spots are picked, you win. That simple. You will obviously win more, if more of your numbers come up, like with lotteries.

Most keno internet games allow you to purchase cards between five cents and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot winnings of up to 50,000 dollars are not uncommon.

Easy? Absolutely. So there should be a catch? Yeah. The gambling casino advantage with Keno is 30% or more, the WORST of any internet casino game. The odds of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a long margin the awful game you could possibly gamble on. If you are seeking a game of chance gamble on slots.
