Before we talk about Keno strategy let's look at the game itself. Keno is considered a type of lottery that came from China. Most historians believe this game is as old as 200 B.C. or older. It is also thought that the Keno game was created to help raise money for the army during war time. Whatever the truth to the origins may be, Keno is a very popular game in China today and it has made a place in the US casinos. Many of the online casinos are also adding this game to their play list to encourage more gamblers to try it out.

Lottery as we all know is a random process in the drawing of numbers. It is impossible to predict the outcome of the numbered balls that will be released on any given round. The numbers on the tickets are 1 through 80. You can bet 1 number or up to 10. In some casinos depending on the tickets and their version of the game it is possible to bet on 20 numbers. Most of the online casinos have this option.

Having looked at the game lets talk about how you should play a single ticket. In Keno there are multiple ticket games as well in which you pick numbers on more than one grid. The single ticket allows you to choose ten numbers on the grid. To wager you can play 1, 5 or even 10 dollars on a ticket.

In this strategy we have found most bet the dollar for ten numbers. You never want to bet on just one number. While you have the same probability for all numbers betting on one is kind of like Roulette where the odds of winning are very low, but the payout is really great. In this case you would be throwing a dollar wager away. You may also be doing that for the 10 number wager, but on the other hand you have more of a chance to win. The numbers must be drawn, but as far as research tells us you don't have to have them in a certain order. It is more like bingo in that respect. If the number is drawn you get a mark for that.

If you choose ten numbers on a single ticket all of those numbers must result to get a payout. It is not like getting one number and not getting the rest will give you winnings. As you can see the game is a lot like the lottery and it is based on random events. However, if you always bet on the ten numbers you have more of a chance to win than betting on one number. If you bet on one number you can't circle anything else on the ticket.

There really is no better strategy than hoping you choose the right numbers. There are no patterns in the play. If you want to look at our multiple strategy, see the Keno Multiple Strategy article.
