» Keno Game Betting Variants

Betting the numbers marked as a single wager is called betting a straight ticket. Many players like to bet more combinations though it is the simplest way to play.
If you want to make a king ticket bet you should circle the number which will be used in all combinations marked.
If a player marks several number groupings and plays combinations of them he makes a combination ticket bet.
Keno payouts are based on how many numbers the player choses and how many numbers are "hit", multiplied by the proportion of the player's original wager to the “base rate” of the paytable. Usually the more numbers a player chooses and the more numbers hit, the greater the payout is.
The probability of a player hitting all 20 numbers on a 20 spot ticket is approximately 1 in 3.5 quintillion.
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. But in another casino, the three-number hit might pay and all four 5, and in another the payoffs might be and 0. Because of the variation, no payback percentage is common enough to be called average.
