Keno is a game of pure chance and is very similar to lottery games. The game was brought over to the US of A by Chinese immigrants in the 19th century. As with lotto games, it is a very easy to play, and it is endearing as large fortunes are available for very tiny bets. Keno is played at lounges, clubs and recreation center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lottery games – horrible expectations.

Rationally, Keno ensconced its way into casinos on the internet as it was an easy game to establish, and online casino software owners wanted to benefit from the big land based Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many people were accustomed to betting on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move on to the internet was less of a hurdle than say with blackjack.

So here is how you enjoy Keno. You begin by choosing between 4 and ten numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each choice is describe as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase countless cards for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre purchase for games in the future.

Once you have submitted your choices, 20 balls with numbers will "enter" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your spots are selected, you win. That is all there is. You will obviously gain more, if more of your spots are landed on, like with lottos.

Most keno online games allow you to buy cards between 5 cents and five dollars, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot fortunes of up to fifty thousand dollars are not uncommon.

Easy? Yes. So there should be a catch? Absolutely. The house advantage with Keno is 30% or more, the WORST of any internet casino game. The chances of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a wide shot the awful game you could possibly bet on. If you want a game of randomness gamble on slot machines.
