  • How to play Keno?

    In Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and all around Australia, there are three different ways you can play Keno. They are:

    1. Traditional This involves physically playing, and selecting numbers on a card manually before each draw occurs. 

    2. Video Keno You play by using a Keno machine

    3. Online Keno This is fast becoming the most popular, and convenient way to play Keno, and involves playing at an online casino.

    To play Keno online, you have to choose 20 numbers from between the numbers 1-80. You can choose the numbers manually yourself, or you can use the Auto Pick option.

    It’s also possible to select only 1 number, or 10, 15 or 20 numbers, by increasing the size of the bets. 

    The odds for winning Keno online are kind of low, so it’s recommended not to place large bets, and remember that you are playing for real money. 

    The pay table has several different factors, which include:

    - the type of Keno game you are playing

    - the number of picks you have made

    - the minimum numbers you need to match to win

    After players have selected their lucky numbers and clicked on the button to play the game, the computer then randomly draws 20 numbers. 

    Then, if the numbers which have been drawn match the numbers a player selects, the player will win. This is based on the payout structure, which includes how many numbers matched and how big the bet was. 

  • How To Win At Keno

    Keno is a game which is purely based on luck, like the lottery, and there is no strategy which can help you win or any lucky numbers. 

    But, luckily this guide offers some tips which can increase your chance to win at Keno online:

    1. 1. Take advantage of the Bonus

      At Joe Fortune, we offer many different deposit bonuses, loyalty programs, and promotions. You can check them all out here. This can enable you to have more money to bet on online Keno and increase your potential winnings.

    2. 2. Play Within Your Limits

      When you play Keno with online gambling, remember that you are using real money. Make sure to stick within your bankroll limits, and don’t go over your loss limits. Set a predetermined amount, and walk away if you lose that amount.

    3. 3. Check The Payout Table

      Be sure to study the payout tables for each Keno game, and play the ones which offer the best payouts. Use ‘way’ tickets, ‘king’ tickets, or place bet combinations to increase your chances of securing the winning numbers.

    4. 4. Stay Away From Big Bets & Lots Of Numbers

      While choosing many numbers will increase the opportunity you have to win, it also means you would need to place many big bets. This can quickly result in you losing a lot of money.

      Ideally, to have fun while playing Keno, you should bet smaller, and be aware of your limits.

  • Keno Strategies

    There are no Keno strategies which can help you win. But by placing small bets, playing within your bankroll, and not choosing more than five numbers, you can get the most enjoyment and fun out of the game. 

  • How are Keno numbers drawn?

    Keno online is a lottery style game, where numbers are drawn randomly by using RNGs (Random Number Generators).

    RNGs have been used since the late ‘70s and early ‘80s, and electronic pokies and slots machines contained some of the first RNGs in casinos. 

    Now using software, RNGs use huge mathematics to produce draw results.

    Most online casino games use between 38 to 55 number possibilities. From these, 6 numbers are drawn. 

    By increasing the numbers to 80, and choosing 20 balls, it increases possible combinations to enormous proportions. 

    The odds of having 20 from 20 winning numbers are virtually impossible (they are 1 in 3.5 quintillion).

    With so many different possible outcomes available, the Keno RNG is required to calculate and output numbers extremely quickly. 

    There are quintillions of possible options which must be randomized, and every second thousands of results are produced. 

    When a Keno online draw occurs, the RNG then selects the current numbers for that split-second. Then they are matched against the 20 numbers selected for the sequence. 

    This is the process used to draw Keno numbers by using an RNG.

  • How many numbers to win Keno?

    A player has to first pick up to 20 different numbers, from between 1 to 80, and the more numbers which are chosen, the bigger the payout. For most Keno online games, you must match a minimum of four numbers to be able to win more than how much you have been betting.  This means there is a huge house advantage. 

    The payout table will depend on the type of Keno game you are playing, as well as the amount you have bet, and how many numbers you have picked. 

    Generally, an online casino pays the following:

    - 10,000 coins for 10 numbers

    - 2000 coins for 9 numbers 

    - 250 coins for 8 numbers

    - 40 coins for 7 numbers

    - 8 coins for 6 numbers

    - 3 coins for 5 numbers

    - 2 coins for 4 numbers

    - 1 coin for 3 numbers

  • Keno Odds

    The odds to match 3 in 4 numbers is approximately 23-1, whereas choosing 9 numbers, the odds to match them all is over a million to one.

  • Is Keno online the same game as Keno in local pubs?

    Online Keno has the same rules as Keno games played in person at a pub or casino. There is only one difference, in that Keno online is a virtual game, and can be played online from anywhere, and local pub Keno is played in a physical location and using paper cards.
