How to Play Keno
The Game
Keno is a number matching game. You can select from one up to ten spots for each game, from the 80 spots on the game board. During each game 20 winning numbers are generated.

Placing a Bet

Bet single credits, up to the maximum, by clicking Bet 1, or bet the maximum amount by clicking Bet Max. Click on Clear to clear your bet. This also removes any spots selected on the Keno board.
Playing the Game
After you place your bet, select the spots you want to play. Click on a spot on the Keno board to select the number. The quantity of selections appears in # Marked. Click on a selected spot to cancel the selection. You may select up to ten spots for each game. Click Clear to clear all selected spots. This also clears your current bet.
The Play button illuminates after you place your bet and select 1 or more spots on the Keno board. Click Play to start the game. The game begins generating the winning numbers. As each winning number arrives, a circle appears in the spot on the Keno board. If one of your selections is a winning number, the spot is highlighted, indicating it is caught. The # Caught increments for each spot caught. After the 20 winning numbers have arrived, your winnings appear in Win. Your winnings are determined by the quantity of spots caught out of total spots selected. The spots you selected in the previous game remain selected. To play the same numbers again, enter a new bet amount and click Play, or click Clear to clear the Keno board and select a new set of numbers and bet amount.

To read the pay chart, scan down the left hand column to find the quantity of spots marked. Then read across the row for the payouts for the quantity of spots caught. If an entry in the chart is blank, the winning amount is zero for the marked/caught combination. Your total winnings are the quantity of credits bet multiplied by the number in the chart. For example, using the above chart, if you bet two credits, mark six spots and catch four spots, the payout is ten. You would win 2 x 10 = 20 credits.
Exiting the Game
