Keno is a game of pure randomness and is very close to Lotto games. The game was brought to the US of A by Chinese newcomers in the nineteenth century. As with lotto games, it is an absolutely simple to play, and it is attractive as substantial prizes are available for very small bets. Keno is played at lounges, clubs and civic center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another similarity with lotto games – horrid expectations.
Rationally, Keno happen upon its way into online casinos as it was a simple game to develop, and internet casino software owners wanted to catch the huge land based Keno fan base online. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many people were accustomed to gambling on Keno on video screens, so the move on to the internet was a insignificant barrier than say with twenty-one.
So here is how you play Keno. You begin by selecting between four and ten numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is referred to 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 future games.
After you have submitted your choices, twenty numbered balls will "enter" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your numbers are picked, you win. That simple. You will obviously gain more, if more of your spots surface, like with lotteries.
Most keno online games allow you to buy tickets between 5 cents and $5, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot prizes of up to $50 000 are not uncommon.
Easy? Yes. So there must be a catch? Yes. The house edge with Keno is thirty percent or higher, the WORST of any online casino game. The chances of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a wide margin the awful game you can possibly wager on. If you are seeking a game of speculation bet on slots.
