Keno is a game of pure luck and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought over to the US by Chinese immigrants in the 19th aeon. As with lotto games, it is an absolutely easy to play, and it is enjoyable as substantial fortunes are available for very little bets. Keno is played at saloons, clubs and civic center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lotto games – horrendous odds.

Logically, Keno found its way into casinos on the internet as it was an easy game to build, and casino software owners wanted to catch the large land based Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many gamblers were accustomed to gambling on Keno on electronic terminals, so the move on to the internet was hardly a hurdle than say with 21.

So here is how you play Keno. You begin by selecting between four and ten numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each choice is referred to as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can purchase multiple cards for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre purchase for upcoming games.

Once you have submitted your selection, twenty balls with numbers will "enter" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. That’s all there is. You will obviously gain more, if more of your spots come up, like with lotteries.

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

Simple? Yeah. So there has to be a problem? Absolutely. The gambling casino edge with Keno is 30% or more, the WORST of any online casino game. The odds of landing on a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a long margin the worst game you could possibly bet on. If you are looking for a game of chance wager on slots.
