Think Carefully Before You Play Keno
Thursday, 1. December 2016
Keno is a game of pure chance and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought to the the states by Chinese newcomers in the 19th century. As with lottery games, it’s a dead easy to play, and it is attractive as large fortunes are available for very tiny bets. Keno is enjoyed at bars, clubs and recreation center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another similarity with lotto games – horrid expectations.
By reason, Keno happen upon its way into casinos on the internet as it was an easy game to develop, and internet casino owners wanted to ensnare the giant land based Keno fan base on the internet. What was even more in the favour of internet casinos was that many players were accustomed to betting on Keno on video terminals, so the move online was a insignificant barrier than say with blackjack.
So here is how you play Keno. You begin by selecting between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is describe as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy multiple tickets for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre purchase for future games.
After you have submitted your choices, 20 numbered balls will "drop" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. That simple. You will obviously come away with more, if more of your numbers hit, like with lotteries.
Most keno online games allow you to purchase cards between 5c and five dollars, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot prizes of up to 50,000 dollars are not uncommon.
Easy? Yes. So there should be a problem? Yeah. The gambling casino advantage with Keno is 30% or higher, the WORST of any online casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25%. Keno is by a wide shot the awful game you could possibly gamble on. If you want a game of luck play slots.
