Keno
Keno has a very similar look and play to that of lottery games. The basic concept is that you try and predict the winning numbers as chosen by the Keno computer. The payout increases with the more keno numbers you accurately predict.
The player chooses between 1 and 15 keno numbers that they think is going to win out of 80. The cost of the selection is determined by the number of keno numbers chosen, however, this is reflected in the payout as the more winning numbers the greater the prize.
The keno number generator then picks 20 keno numbers at random. If your numbers match the randomly generated then you are a winner.
History of Keno

Keno - Strategy
The key decision when playing Keno is how many numbers are you going to pick. The more numbers you choose to bet on the higher the chance that are actually going to win. But, the amount you are going to win is based on the accuracy of your predictions. So if you pick 2 numbers and they are selected by the Keno machine then you will win higher then if you pick 4 numbers and two of those come in.
The greatest possible amount you can win is usually 10,000 to 1 or 100% of the Progressive Jackpot by selecting 15 numbers and all 15 being selected by the Keno machine.
It’s a good idea to look at the posted odds and payout schedule before choosing how many numbers to play and what they should be.
It must always be remembered that all keno numbers have an equal chance of being picked, therefore any Keno system that you read about is as good as any other system for Keno.
