» The Main Idea Of Right Bets In Keno
|
|
Keno is played at modern casinos, it is a lottery-like or bingo-like gambling game. There is a circular glass enclosure called a "bubble" containing 80 ping pong-like balls which determine the balldraw result in keno. Each ball is imprinted with a number 1 through 80. A blower pushes air into the bubble and mixes the balls during the balldraw. A "caller" is used to press a lever opening a tube, where the balls lift one at a time into a "V" shaped tube called the "rabbit ears". The caller and a "verifier" are used to record each of 20 balls drawn, and the computerized keno system is used to calculate all wagers based on the numbers drawn.
One can choose any numbers on a a blank keno ticket form and mark them with an "X". After that you can place your wagers and then the casino draws 20 balls (numbers) at random.
Every casino has its "paytables" - series of pay scale choices. The player is paid based on how many numbers drawn match the numbers selected on the ticket and according to the paytable selected with regard to the wager amount. Keno paytables and the house edge set for each of those paytables vary greatly from casino to casino. One can hardly find two absolutely identical keno paytables.
Usually the house edge is from less than 4% to 66%.
"Keno runners" begin the game. They walk around, call "keno" and carry the wagers of the players to the keno booth. The players give the keno runner the "inside ticket" and the wager payment. The "inside ticket" is a keno wager form filled out by the customer. The "inside ticket" represents a wager form that is to be filled out by the player. After that he takes the wager and that ticket and carries them to the counter. In return the player receives an "outside ticket" - an official wager receipt. It is incumbent on the player to check the ticket for errors before the game balldraw is drawn. No corrections are accepted after the first ball is drawn.
When all the 20 numbers are known, the winning tickets are paid. The payouts differ in defferent casinos. If you have, for example, a four-spot ticket, you are paid 1:1 if 2 numbers hit, 1:5 if 3 numbers hit and 1:120! if all the 4 numbers hit. Some other casinos will offer partly or totally different payouts. That makes it impossible to define the average payback ratio. The range of paybacks is somewhere between 70 and 80%.
