Keno - How to Play

Super Keno as it is now commonly known is believed to have been created by the Chinese Government to fund such projects as The Great Wall of China and their growing army nearly three and a half thousand years ago. Originally called Chinese Lottery the game of Keno is very similar to the Lotto game.

Keno, a lottery style game, is one of the oldest games played in casinos and is easy to learn.

To begin, Keno is played with a card, called the Keno Card. A Keno Card has eighty squares; each square contains a number ranging from 1 to 80. The player selects a wager amount for the Keno Card and predicts what numbers will be drawn by selecting one or as many as fifteen numbers on the Keno Card. The wager amounts are 1 cent, 25 cents, $1, $5 and $10. The player also has the choice of clicking the Quick Pick button, which will select 10 random numbers each time the button is clicked, as long as the game is not in progress. In addition, the player can choose how many times the numbers chosen will be played. The player has the choice of playing the current Keno Card 1, 5 or 10 times in a row.

After clicking one of the Play buttons (1, 5, or 10), twenty of the numbers are then drawn randomly. Numbers drawn that do not match the player's choice are marked on the Keno Card with a Red “X”. Numbers drawn that do match the player's choice are marked on the Keno Card with Gold numbers and an animation. The more numbers that are correctly predicted, the higher the payout. The right side of the keno card displays the round number (Play 1, 5 or 10) and how many hits the player received.
