So here is how you enjoy Keno. You start off by choosing between 4 and 10 numbers from a total of 80 numbers. Each selection is called a "spot". In many online keno games, you can buy countless cards for the same draw, and in many games you can even pre-buy for games in the future.
After you have submitted your choices, 20 numbered balls will "drop" into a capsule from a barrel. If enough of your spots are selected, you win. That’s all there is. You will obviously earn more, if more of your numbers are landed on, like with lotteries.
Most keno online games allow you to buy tickets between five cents and five dollars, and pay out in multiples of your card value. Jackpot fortunes of up to 50,000 dollars are not uncommon.
