The oldest casino game of all, Keno is a game of pure luck very much like the lottery, in which players predict the winning numbers that will be chosen at random by the house.

Players can choose between one and 15 numbers that think will win out of the 80 numbers available. The amount bet will depend on the number of Keno numbers chosen – and the amount won depends on the amount of winning numbers correctly predicted.

Keno is a mobile casino favourite - what's your lucky number?

Keno is so easy to play - and this is one of its appeals. The computer will randomly select 20 Keno numbers and if your predictions match any of these, you win.

History of Keno

Keno is the oldest casino game, invented over 2000 years ago in China. The game was originally formulated in order to raise money to build the Great Wall of China. It is also said that funds were raised through Keno to help a war effort. Keno spread to the West as Chinese immigrants entered the US in search of work.

The original version of Keno used 120 Chinese characters but when it came over to the West the rules were altered to use just 80 numbers.
