What was even more in the favour of online casinos was that many people were used to playing Keno on video screens, so the move on to the internet was less of a barrier than say with blackjack.

So here is how you play Keno. You start off by appointing between four and ten numbers from a total of eighty numbers. Each choice is describe as a "spot". In many internet keno games, you can purchase many cards for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre-buy for upcoming games.

After you have submitted your selection, 20 numbered balls will "drop" into a hopper from a tube. If enough of your spots are selected, you win. That is all there is. You will obviously gain more, if more of your spots are landed on, like with lottos.

Most keno online games allow you to purchase tickets between five cents and 5 dollars, and pay out in multiples of your ticket value. Jackpot prizes of up to $50,000 are not uncommon.
