Question

I kind of like keno but never have won a large amount. How can I ensure winning?

Community Answer

Try to play games 4 or 5, and play lucky pick. It increases your chances, from a completely unscientific perspective, just someone's personal experience.

Question

How do I pick winning numbers in Keno?

Community Answer

Since numbers are chosen randomly, they have an equal probability of being chosen. Some people like to pick the same set of numbers each time. Others recommend listening as numbers are chosen and pick ones that have not hit recently. It's a little more luck than strategy.

Question

If a keno game has been skipped, how would I find the results for that game?

Community Answer

Present your card to the attendant to know if it is a winning card. They just put it in the machine to find out.

Question

If I got 4 out of 10 numbers on a $3 bet, how much did I win?

Community Answer

You win nothing, unfortunately. In most casino keno pay lists, you have to match five numbers to win. Five out of ten played will net you exactly what you bet. (If you bet $1.00, you would win $1.00.)

Question

Is it better to stay with the same number for every game I play?

Trace Utah Hinson

Community Answer

In my experience, typically you have a greater chance of "hitting" if you play the same numbers for a little while. For example, if you play the entire vertical row from 6 down, if you start with $20, I would play the same numbers till I get down to $12 or$10, then switch it up accordingly.

Question

What are the odds of winning at Keno?

Community Answer

The odds depend on the matching numbers and the prize amount. For example, if you're going for a $50 prize with 16 or 4 numbers matches, your odds are 1 in 308. If you're going for a $3 prize with 13 or 7 numbers matched, your odds are 1 in 8.
