Keno Rules
Keno is a thrilling game that was first introduced in China around 200B.C.
It came to the United States with the immigrants and
over time evolved into the game you now see before you. The Keno game
is played with a traditional 80-numbered ticket and
20 balls whose function is the same as in a standard lottery. The player
marks from 1 to 15 spots on the ticket and is paid
according to the numbers that roll out on the balls and the bet he
or she chose. The five different ways to bet on a Keno ticket
are discussed below. After each game you may choose to stay with the
same spots you played (by clicking on REPEAT button)
or pick new spots on the ticket. Different betting options are enabled
as you place your marks, however you may not mark more
than 15 spots on any one game.
"Bet"
Option is enabled once you
mark at least one spot on the Keno ticket. You are paid if one or more
of the numbers you
chose roll out on the balls. The following is a sample payoff tables
for a $1.00 bet.

spots than the opposite part. The payoff depends on how great that difference
is. The following is
