Keno is a great alternative to Bingo

If you like Bingo you probably also like the idea of lotteries as they are also numbers games requiring only luck to win but there is another game gaining in popularity called Keno. Online Keno is available at most online casinos and is often to be found in the casino games section. The game of Keno is thought to have been brought to the USA by Chinese immigrants in the late 19^th century and it is very popular in US casinos. Keno online is a much simpler game than that found in casinos as there are fewer betting options. Unlike Bingo or lotteries however Keno gives you the chance to vary your risk and reward strategy depending upon how lucky you feel as well of course your stake. It is also a very quick game which makes it ideal for those with only limited time. In a game of Keno there are 80 numbers and in each game 20 of these are drawn out. You win just like in a lottery by matching your selections of numbers against those drawn and the more you match the more you win. The difference is that you can choose how many numbers you play in any one game and the odds vary according to how many numbers you choose to play. Reasonably enough if you play only two numbers and twenty from the eighty are drawn your chances of hitting one or two are less than if you had played ten numbers; for this reason your odds of hitting two numbers when playing only two numbers will be better than when playing ten numbers. The odds will appear on the game board as you back numbers but beware, odds are not the same across all online casinos. Online Keno is a great quick game and very easy to play, Play free Keno to check the odds in a particular online casino.
