Keno is essentially a fast-paced, continuous lottery game hosted directly inside the casino environment.

Despite its slow pace, hitting a massive Keno ticket can result in some of the largest payouts in the casino.

How to Fill Out a Keno Ticket

The standard game of Keno utilizes a board or ticket featuring numbers ranging from 1 to 80.

If the casino draws the numbers you selected, you win a prize based on how many "catches" you achieved.

• Choose between 1 and 15 numbers (spots) on a ticket
• The casino randomly draws 20 winning numbers
• Payouts depend entirely on the number of successful matches

Understanding the High House Edge

While Keno is incredibly fun and easy, players must understand the brutal mathematics behind the game.

Compare this to blackjack, which has a house edge of 0.5%, and you realize how difficult Keno is to beat.

How to Survive at Keno

Picking "hot" numbers or analyzing past draws is a complete waste of time due to the random number generator.

Treat Keno exactly like buying a lottery ticket: spend a few dollars hoping for a miracle, but expect to lose.

Keno remains incredibly popular simply because it offers the dream of turning a single dollar into a massive fortune.
