How to play the game of Keno?

Many players would describe the game of Keno as a cross between online bingo and a lottery game. The aim of the game is to match the numbers on your card to the numbers being called. The numbers are selected randomly by the casino, pretty much in the same way as when you play online bingo. The only difference is that the players get to select the number on their Keno card as they would do when playing the lottery.

To start playing Keno online, you need to open the game is your favourite casino software (check out our selection of best online casino to see our recommendations). The game may vary slightly from casino to casino so just make sure you read the detail on the game file before you place your bet. Otherwise, you can just play a few games for free until you are sure that you understand the game and are comfortable playing for real money. Most online casinos will give you the option to log in as a “play for fun” user and place free bets.

Once you start playing the game, you will need to select the amount you want to wager and then select the numbers you want to bet on. Keno, just like the lottery, is the ultimate game to play lucky numbers. Remember to try birthdays, wedding anniversary date, lucky house number, lucky postcode and any other lucky number such as 13 or 7. Players normally get to choose between 10 – 15 numbers for each card. Payouts will be calculated based on the amount bet by the player multiplied by the numbers that are drawn successfully. Check out the payout table of the game for details. As with many casino games, the more you wager per game, the more you stand to win.

The board of Keno has 80 numbers and you simply need to click on each number you want to select to place a bet on it. If you change your mind, simply click the number again to de-select it and pick another one instead. Once you’re happy with your selection from the 80 numbers available, click on the betting button to start the game. The casino software will run the game, select 20 random numbers and payout depending on how many numbers you’ve landed (or Hit) correctly.

The game is great if you have lucky numbers that mean something to you. You can play the same numbers time and time again until you hit big!
