Keno is a game of pure luck and is very close to lottery games. The game was brought over to the U.S.A by Chinese newcomers in the 19th century. As with lottery games, it’s an absolutely easy to play, and it is appealing as large prizes are available for very little wagers. Keno is played at lounges, clubs and rec center all over the planet today. Unfortunately it shares another weakness with lotto games – terrible odds.
Sensibly, Keno happen upon its way into online casinos as it was an easy game to establish, and casino owners wanted to catch the giant brick and mortar Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many people were accustomed to playing Keno on electronic terminals, so the move online was hardly a hurdle than say with blackjack.
So here is how you enjoy Keno. You begin by choosing between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is describe as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can buy multiple cards for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre-order for upcoming games.
Once you have submitted your selection, 20 balls with numbers will "enter" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your numbers are picked, you win. That simple. You will obviously win more, if more of your spots are landed on, like with lottos.
Most keno online games allow you to buy tickets between 5 cents and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot winnings of up to 50,000 dollars are not uncommon.
Simple? Yes. So there should be a problem? Absolutely. The casino edge with Keno is 30% or higher, the WORST of any internet casino game. The expectation of landing on a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a big margin the atrocious game you can possibly play. If you are looking for a game of chance play slots.
