So here is how you play Keno. You begin by selecting between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is describe as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can buy countless cards for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre-buy for upcoming games.

After you have submitted your choices, 20 numbered balls will "drop" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your numbers are picked, you win. It is that easy. You will obviously amass more, if more of your spots hit, like with lottos.

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