Keno System
Before you get too keyed up, let me first say that I don't have an
infallible method of beating keno at any casino. What I do have is an
attractive story of how one man did indeed beat the casino at keno,
very persuasively. This of course could be recurring, but if you're
lucky enough to come across it, I recommend you keep it to yourself.
The tale is often misunderstood as the story of the math wiz who used
chaos theory to decide consistent patters below the facade of a pseudo
random number generator. Essentially this is pretty much true, apart
from it wasn't a math wiz, he didn't do a single calculation, and probably
couldn't define what chaos theory is with anything more than the Jurassic
park explanation.
But his realization of a pattern within a set of no patterns is entirely
true.
First off lets explain the difference between pseudo random numbers
and random numbers. On another page of this site I mention that computers
are actually much worse at picking random numbers than humans are, and
I'd like to qualify that a little. When a computer program is asked
to generate a random number, they go to a sequence of code designed
for just that, which coincidentally enough is usually referred to as
a random number generator. The problem is that the random number generator
is only as good as its seed value, from which the random string of numbers
is produced. A seed number acts sort of as the random starting block.
