Play Keno
To play keno one of the most important things to know
is how to place your bets on your betting cards. I will show you how
by explaining 2 different methods. The first being straight tickets
while the second being way tickets.
Straight Tickets: One of the simplest ways to play
keno is by simply playing a straight ticket. Even though the game can
be very dull, it is straightforward and eliminates any kind of confusion.
To play a straight ticket, you need to mark off the numbers you hope
to come up in the draw and mark the number of spots in the provided
area. The maximum number of spots you can mark off depends on the casino,
but the limit will never exceed 20, as that is the number of balls drawn.
Way Tickets: Playing a way ticket means that you are
using one ticket to mark two or more sets of numbers. In fact, playing
one 3-way ticket is the same as playing three 1-way tickets and marking
the numbers on those individually. Both offer the same chances of winning,
the same odds and, of course, the same payouts. The advantage is also
that you can bet lower amounts of money. In the example on the right,
you're actually paying $.25 for each of the sets. Since there are three
sets, the total price for the game is $.75. Although all three sets
have three numbers each, they do not need to be the same. You can have
as many groups as you wish, each having up to 20 numbers (assuming that's
the limit for the casino). |
