How to Play Keno
When you play keno for real money, you will have to choose up to 10 numbers you want to wager on. However, some casinos allow you to pick more than ten but only up to 15. The winning numbers are randomly selected, and 20 numbers are drawn as the winning numbers. Your 10 or 15 numbers have to match from the 20 that are drawn to win big. Master the Basic Concepts. As everyone knows, keno is a lottery game. What most people don’t.
Keno is part-lottery, part-bingo, with some unique rules of its own in the mix as well, and this creates a game experience like no other.
With four games per day, it's also one of the most active lottery games in the world, and wagers can range from $1 up to as much as $100 per line.
It's also unusual in that the player decides how many numbers to pick - from just one, up to ten numbers per line, from a pot of 80 balls.
Depending on how many numbers you choose, your odds of matching with the 20 balls drawn from the pot will change - and the prizes paid out change too (see the table below for a full breakdown of how this will affect what you win).
To play Keno, you will need to decide:
- How many numbers to pick.
- How much to wager.
Together, these will determine your odds of a win, and how much you get - it's also important to know when you haven't won too.
For instance, matching three numbers is a win if you only chose six. But choose seven to ten numbers, and you'll get nothing for matching three.

There is also a kind of 'bad beat' consolation prize if you chose ten numbers and did not match with any of the 20 balls drawn, and you'll get $3 back for a $1 wager.
