How To Play Keno
Keno is one of the easiest gambling games to play. When you
learn how to play Keno, you'll be able to find a Keno game in
just about any Las Vegas casino hall or online casino. Similar
to Lotto, Keno originated in China and was brought to the United
States by Chinese immigrants in the mid-1800s. One of the best
reasons to learn how to play Keno is the potential payout: in
most online casinos, a $1 bet can pay out up to $50,000 in
winnings. The rules for how to play Keno are just as simple as
playing your state's lottery.
Would you like to know how to play Keno? There are no cards
involved in this simple game of chance. Keno play consists of
selecting a minimum of four and a maximum of ten numbers, called
spots, between 1 and 80. Your game is called according to the
number of spots you select; for instance, if you pick eight
numbers, you're playing 8-spot Keno. Winning numbers for each
Keno game are randomly selected, and winners are determined by
how many of your numbers match the winning numbers. In some
cases, such as in 10-spot Keno, payouts are given if you don't
match any of the numbers. If you know how to play the lottery,
you know how to play Keno!
Generally, there are two options for how to play Keno. In most
Las Vegas casinos there are Keno lounges specially designated
for playing the game. Screens called Keno boards are located in
the lounge and display the results of each Keno draw. Most
casinos hold Keno draws every ten or twenty minutes. For players
who want to participate in Keno outside the lounge, Vegas
casinos have Keno screens throughout the hall to display the
results, and employees called Keno runner circulating through
the crowds, who will collect your ticket and deliver your
winnings. Knowing how to play Keno means you'll always have
something going on when you're at the casino!
Another method for how to play Keno is video Keno. This is the
version available for online casino play. Video Keno is similar
to live Keno, except you don't have to wait ten minutes between
games. Like a slot machine, you can play video Keno as many
times in a row as you wish. The payouts for video Keno can be as
high as $100,000 on a $1 wager. Video Keno is available at just
about every online casino. So, now you know how to play Keno.
