Ponder Long And Hard Before You Wager on Keno
Saturday, 11. June 2022
Keno is a game of pure randomness and is very similar to Lotto games. The game was brought to the U.S. by Chinese expatriates in the nineteenth century. As with lotto games, it is a dead simple to play, and it is enjoyable as large jackpots are offered for very small bets. Keno is played at taverns, clubs and recreation center all over the world today. Unfortunately it shares another weak point with lotto games – horrid odds.
Rationally, Keno hit upon its way into internet casinos as it was an easy game to develop, and internet casino software operators wanted to capture the large land based Keno players on the internet. What was even more in the favour of internet casinos was that many people were accustomed to betting on Keno on video screens, so the move online was a insignificant encumbrance than say with 21.
So here is how you play Keno. You begin by selecting between 4 and ten numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each selection is referred to as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy different cards for the same draw, and in a handful games you can even pre-order for games in the future.
After you have submitted your selection, twenty numbered balls will "drop" into a capsule from a tube. If enough of your spots are drawn, you win. That simple. You will obviously come away with more, if more of your spots come up, like with lotteries.
Most internet keno games allow you to buy tickets between 5c and five dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot winnings of up to 50,000 dollars are not uncommon.
Simple? Yeah. So there should be a problem? Absolutely. The casino edge with Keno is 30 percent or more, the WORST of any internet casino game. The expectation of hitting a number is 0.25percent. Keno is by a long margin the awful game you can possibly play. If you are wanting a game of luck gamble on slots.
