Understanding Keno Odds

Before you start playing Keno, it is wise to know something about your chances - or odds - of winning.

Keno is pretty much a game of chance. And whilst you may win big, you should know how likely this is. So what are the odds of winning at keno?

Expected Keno Odds

The table on this page shows the percentage chances of any given keno result - that is the number of times each result is expected in every hundred keno games.

For example:

If you pick a 3 spot, the chances of catching all 3 numbers are 1% or 1 in 100…
If you pick a 4 spot, the chances of catching 3 of your keno numbers are 4%, or 4 in 100…
If you pick 15 numbers, the odds of getting all 15 are infinitesimal!

Of course, if you look at the schedule of any Keno game, you will soon see that the results that have a high chance of occurring have a low or zero payment attached. And those with a low probability of occurring attract the highest payouts and keno Jackpots.

The schedules for the best online Keno games are designed so that if you played long enough you should theoretically get back around 85-95% of your total stakes.
