DIFFERENT TYPES OF KENO
Generally we found six categories of Keno Game tickets
in the casino parlor or casino lounges. We will try to
simplify the discussion of these games by dividing them
into six basic categories:
- Straight Tickets
- Split Tickets
- Way Tickets
- Combination Tickets
- King Tickets
- Special Tickets
Straight Tickets
This is the most basic ticket, and the most common of
all. You have to mark your numbers simply and wait for the
lucky draw. Of course there are a few more details which
are situation oriented not discussed here.
At first you will have to determine how many spots you
want to play. Almost every casino allows you to choose 1
to 15 spots, and some even allow you to choose 20, 32 or
40 numbers on a straight ticket. You will normally want to
play 4 to 8 numbers. Below 4 spots, your payoff isn't
worth the average 30% casino take. At 8 numbers, your odds
are about 230,115 to 1. At 9 spots it jumps to 1.38
million to 1, and at 15 spots your odds of hitting all 15
are an unrealistic 428,010,179,098 to 1, or about 428
BILLION to 1!
Your ultimate decision is to choose how much to gamble.
Common straight tickets are $1.00, although some are 70
cents or lower. You can also play multiples of the base
rates. For example, you could play a $1.00 ticket for
$5.00, and your winnings will be multiplied by 5 times the
$1.00 payout rate. But there is one thing you must be
aware of when playing multiples of the base rate; the
casino will not pay more than the aggregate limit on any
one game. So if the aggregate limit is $50,000, your
payout will never exceed $50,000, no matter how much you
bet as maximum limit.
