Keno is a thrilling and widely popular game believed to have originated in ancient China in the Han Dynasty between 205 and 187 B.C. The game was brought to America in the 19th century by Chinese immigrants.
Today Keno is played at most modern casinos, and at many bingo halls. A player chooses anywhere from 1 to 20 numbers and marks them on a keno ticket of 80 numbers (1 to 80). The casino then draws 20 numbers at random. The player is paid out against his original wager based on how many numbers match the ones he marked on his ticket.
In online Keno, you will not actually see the squirrel cage and the balls, but rather a betting layout representing each of the numbers 1 through 80.
Choose $1, $2, $5 or $10 as your wager amount.
Select the numbers on which you would like to wager. You may select from one to twelve numbers at once. The more numbers you select, the more you have to get correct. However, more numbers means more money if you wagered on the correct numbers. After you have determined your numbers, click on play and the 20 randomly generated numbers will start appearing on the layout.
How much you win is determined by how much you wager, how many Keno numbers you selected and how many of your selected numbers actually hit. On the right side of the screen you will see a box marked by "hit" and "pays." This box will tell you many hits you must have to win the corresponding amount.
1. You may wager $1, $2, $5 or $10.

5. Payoff is determined by how much you wager, how many Keno numbers you selected and how many of your selected numbers actually hit. The payoff table is on the right side of the screen.
6. In the event of unusual activity in the software or outside intervention all wagers will be placed under review for further determination.
