The Casinos of Bootleggers: Keno WillSeanMakeBoss

Keno is one of the most popular casinos in Bootleggers. It is played by selecting ten numbers out of a total of eighty. After choosing your numbers, the game will then randomly select twenty numbers and depending on how many of your choices match, you will win different amounts of cash.

Average price of a Keno: The average price of a Keno right now is 45 points (or $990,000).

Average turnover of owning a BlackJack: This week, I had the same problem as I had with BlackJack. Only one casino owner messaged me back so I was only able to go on what they said. KoenjooIV told me that in three hours they had made a profit of $3,000,000. He then went on to assure me that Kenos are either big profit bringers or they sap all the casino owner’s cash.

Keno owners’ opinions on Kenos/if they’re worth it: Again, I was only able to go on what one casino owner had told me, but KoenjooIV seemed to think that Kenos were definitely worth buying, as long as you kept your max bet high. If you keep your max bet low and then get unlucky and someone hits an 8 or 9 number then you could lose a lot of cash, even with a low bet. KoenjooIV advises all Keno owners to keep their max bet high if they want to make the most out of their Kenos. He closed by telling us that he thought that Kenos were the biggest money makers for casino owners after Slot Machines.

Opinion of gamblers on how easy Kenos profitability/chance of winning when gambling: A lot of players seemed to agree that the best way to gamble at Keno was to be very patient and constantly stick to the same numbers. However, thanks to the ’Please Retry’ error which has been implemented by BSF2000 recently as a temporary fix to a problem, gamblers were finding Kenos a lot harder to bet on as they couldn’t place their bets and click very fast. After all, according to ArachnaphobiA, “If you stick with the same numbers and have a lot of patience, you will hit big before you lose money” . Bearing in mind that hitting ten numbers wins you 10,000 times your bet, only after you bet that many times will you actually be making a loss if you hit the best you possibly could. This should hopefully give you an idea of how patient you need to be when playing Keno. Himmelion, a very well known Keno player, said that Keno was a hard casino to win simply because most players didn’t have the patience to bet and bet and bet until they made a huge profit.

Conclusion: It seems that Keno is a relatively straightforward casino to win money on. As long as you have the patience to bet on the same numbers over and over again you should eventually win some cash. I guess it’s about whether or not you are willing to give up so much time. I can say from personal experience with Keno earlier today, I was gambling for a good hour non-stop (that means ignoring boot mails, forums and criming) and the best I hit was 6 numbers (which didn’t win me a great deal of money). My guess is that you should bet quite low and hope to hit 8 or more numbers eventually to win big. Feel free to discuss any of YOUR strategies below, though!
