The Advantages of Online Keno

Online Keno has several advantages over casino keno. The greatest advantage is that the house odds are lower. Land casino house odds can be as much as 30%. For online keno, the percent rarely exceeds 12%. This is definitely an advantage to the player.

Another advantage of online keno is that the player can select a number of games to be played consecutively with the same choice of his numbers. He can click on Play One, Play Five or even Play Ten, and he then just sits back and watches the games go on. This is like playing several land \"tickets\" at once only easier.

Many keno players prefer to play Keno online because it is played at home without all the distractions of a casino. The player is always in control. He can pause or stop and his online game will be waiting when he goes back to it. A lot of players prefer this relaxed atmosphere to the noisy casino keno lounges.

Risks of Playing Online Keno

One thing to be careful of with Online Keno is that the games move faster than those in a land casino, and if he is not careful, the player may use up his bankroll before he realizes it.

However, Online Keno is loads of fun and easy to play. There are free practice games and real money keno games - all bright and entertaining.
