"Keno runners" begin the game. They walk around, call "keno" and carry the wagers of the players to the keno 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". After that he takes the wager and that ticket and carries them to the counter. The keno runner returns with an "outside" ticket, which is the official wager receipt. Before the game begins each player should ckeck up his ticket. You won't have such an opportunity after the balldraw begins.
After all the balls are drawn, the winners get their payouts, which are often quite different in different gambling houses. 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. Paybacks range from below 70 percent to more than 80 percent.
The game begins with the following: a "keno runner" calls "keno" and offers to carry the wagers to the booth. The players give the keno runner the "inside ticket" and the wager payment. A keno wager form filled out by the customer is called the "inside ticket". Then the wager and the ticket are taken to the keno counter. The keno runner returns with an "outside" ticket, which is the official wager receipt. It is obligatory for the player to check up his ticket before the beginning of the game. Any errors not corrected before the balldraw begins are not normally rectified.
When all the 20 numbers are known, the winning tickets are paid. The payouts differ in defferent casinos. 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. 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.
