» Keno Lottery Average Payback

The game begins with the following: a "keno runner" calls "keno" and offers to carry the wagers to the booth. The keno runner collects the wagers and the "inside tickets" of the players. A keno wager form filled out by the customer is called the "inside ticket". Then he takes the wager and ticket to the keno counter for processing. 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. You won't have such an opportunity after the balldraw begins.
After the 20 numbers are drawn, winning tickets are paid according to a table that varies from house to house. For example, a four-spot ticket with wagered might return the if two numbers hit, bring if three numbers hit, and pay 0 if all four come in. Some other casinos will offer partly or totally different payouts. Because of the variation, no payback percentage is common enough to be called average. Paybacks range from below 70 percent to more than 80 percent.
