Keno is a game of pure chance and is very close to Lotto games. The game was brought over to the USA by Chinese immigrants in the nineteenth century. As with lottery games, it’s a very simple to enjoy, and it is enchanting as large fortunes are offered for very small wagers. Keno is played at bars, clubs and rec center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lotto games – horrendous odds.

Understandably, Keno hit upon its way into casinos on the internet as it was a simple game to create, and casino operators wanted to ensnare the large brick and mortar Keno players online. What was even more in the favour of internet casinos was that many players were accustomed to wagering on Keno on video terminals, so the move on to the internet was less of a hurdle than say with chemin de fer.

So here is how you play Keno. You start off by choosing between four and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is describe as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy multiple cards for the same draw, and in a few games you can even pre-buy for games in the future.

Once you have submitted your selection, twenty balls with numbers will "drop" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your spots are selected, you win. That simple. You will obviously come away with more, if more of your spots are landed on, like with lottos.

Most keno online games allow you to buy cards between 5c and $5, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot winnings of up to $50 000 are not uncommon.

Easy? Yeah. So there has to be a catch? Absolutely. The casino advantage with Keno is 30 percent or higher, the WORST of any online casino game. The chances of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a wide shot the atrocious game you could possibly wager on. If you are wanting a game of luck wager on slot machines.
