Keno Long Odds

We know keno is a game that favors the house in a big way. The house advantage starts at 25 percent and goes up from there. However, lots of people still play it for many reasons. Some consider it a slow and non-threatening type game. Others like it for its low cost, still others want some action while eating in one of the casinos restaurants. Consider this simple and low cost way to play keno. Only play the 3-spot, straight up. You bet $3 per game, play three games with the same three numbers. If two numbers show up during any one of the games you’ll get your $3 back. If all three numbers appear during any game you will get $126, and sometimes a little more in casinos that pay a better rate. Your total outlay is $9.00, with a possible $126 payout, not a bad gamble.
