How to win at Keno
Keno is essentially a game of chance, so there isn't as much room for employing strategy as there is in, say Sic Bo or Punto Banco / Baccarat.
However, there are a couple of factors a Keno player needs to understand in order to improve their chance of winning:
1. How many numbers to choose.
2. The payout for matching those numbers.
How many numbers you choose will depend on your risk profile (see below) - i.e. are you a higher risk player looking for the maximum payout, or are you a slow, steady player who'd prefer to get consistent smaller wins?
The best online casinos for Keno
Once you know how many numbers you're looking to match, you can make the next decision - where to play. Different online casinos have different payouts for the same results, so it's extremely important to choose the casino that will give you the maximum payout on a winning bet.
The table below shows the payouts at our recommended casinos, in the following categories:
Category A : Bovada and Dreams (RTG software)
Category B : Ladbrokes, betfair, William Hill, bet365 and Winner (Playtech)
Category C : Spin Palace (Microgaming)
Category D : Miami Club, Black Diamond, Guts (Various).
As an example, if your preference is to match just 3 numbers, one of the Category B casinos would pay the highest at 47 to 1. If you were looking to match 7 numbers, a Category A casino would pay 8,000 to 1, much more than a Category D at just 100 to 1.
