So here is how you play Keno. You start off by appointing between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each choice is describe as a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy countless tickets for the same draw, and in quite a few games you can even pre-buy for upcoming games.

Once you have submitted your selection, twenty numbered balls will "drop" into a hopper from a barrel. If enough of your numbers are drawn, you win. It is that easy. You will obviously gain more, if more of your spots appear, like with lotteries.

Most internet keno games allow you to purchase cards between five cents and five dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot fortunes of up to $50,000 are not uncommon.
