Keno critics are quick to say the game isn’t worth playing, yet thousands of people sign up for poker tournaments. 85% of poker tournament players win nothing in any given tournament.
All criticisms and rebuttals aside, if you’re not playing in a tournament to the bitter end, you always have the option of not placing another bet in any game.
Common sense tells us to manage our budgets and keep losses to a minimum. When players are totally dependent upon random luck, like in the game of keno, the time to stop playing is when it stops being fun.
I won’t include any psychological or motivational talking points in the seven ways to avoid losing keno below, but the way you look at gambling is important. If you’re only paying for entertainment and you always have a good time, you walk out a winner every time.
Keep in mind, keno payouts do range across the board. If I talk about doubling your money below, that’s based on a specific pay table. I also refer to the worst payouts so, hopefully, the games you play will pay better. Keno pays whatever the game runner decides.
1 – Never Bet the Bank
Betting theory is not my thing. I’m sure someone has studied all the angles. A friend once said to me,
“your chances of winning are the same whether you bet all your money or only bet a little.”
I’ve never seen him make a bet that big. The point is well taken. In a fair game, you have the same chance to win regardless of how much you wager.
Some older slot machines changed your chances of winning if you played fewer paylines. The advertised payouts were based on maximum payline betting. Hence, eliminating some of the paylines to save on your bets was a negative proposition. Each bet cost you more in the long run because it was less likely to pay off.
All things considered, I’d rather not spend my last $20 on a keno bet. I wouldn’t put my last $20 on any one bet. If there’s a smaller bet than your casino bankroll that has the same chance of winning, play the smaller bet and live to gamble another day.
2 – Play the Spreads
This is a controversial idea. It probably comes from people who belittle keno players. “Spreads” are the patterns players use to pick their keno numbers.
The bettor believes that the game’s outcome will fall into a certain region of the number line. Keno players who use spreads hedge their wagers by betting on multiple spreads.
It’s pretty simple to do this. Since the game is drawing 20 numbers out of 80, you think about which numbers you’d like to see come up.
Some players use the “hot” and “cold” numbers as bases for their spreads. Since the drawings are random, there’s no guarantee that any one number will come up in the next game. But “hot” and “cold” numbers are real statistical patterns.
3 – Play the Middle Picks
There’s no simple way to define the “middle” picks in keno. Every casino and lottery gaming authority has its own keno rules.
If the game allows 10 picks, the best odds are usually found for the four-spot, five-spot, and six-spot picks. Some players say the seven-spot picks are also good. If the game allows 15 to 20 picks, the odds may converge on a different set of “middle” picks.
A five-spot game is comparable to playing most major lotteries. A seven-spot game goes beyond the major lotteries in number of main spots.
4 – Only Make Minimum Bets
This strategy is not quite the same as “never bet the bank.” If you never bet the bank, there’s nothing to stop you from betting half the bank.
It’s easy to overthink your wagering strategy. If you only bet half the bank, should you bet the second half if you lose the first bet or divide it in half again?
These trick questions are clever ways to confuse people who lack experience. When you’re down to the last dollar you can bet, you either finish paying for your entertainment or you walk away.
I’ve had nights where my bankroll bobbed up and down by 10% to 20%. I thought those were good nights. I didn’t lose much and I won a little.
Minimum wagering is less fun than maximum wagering. It’s a survival strategy. Some people only want to make minimum bets so they can spend more time in the casino.
5 – Play the Small Picks
If you’re only making minimum bets, then play the small picks. Remember that every keno game has its own rules. These examples are only for illustrative purposes. Check the odds and payouts in each game you play.
Players can double their money or better if they win a one-spot game. The chances of any number being drawn are 1 in 80. Because 20 numbers are drawn, the player’s chances of picking any of the 20 numbers are 1 in 4.
That’s the best probability you’ll ever get in keno. Other picks that may pay double include catches on:
- Five numbers in a 10-spot game
- Four numbers in an eight-spot or nine-spot game
- Three numbers in a five-spot game
- Two numbers in a three-spot game
The math is simple. If you only want to double your money (not a bad payoff but not great), then your best bet (literally) is to play one-spot games.
6 – Play the Maximum Minimum Payoff Games
This is almost the opposite of the previous strategy. On the assumption that you’re going to lose more often than win, the idea is to get the most bang for your buck.
In this strategy, you play the two-spot game. You must catch two numbers to win but the odds are about 1 in 17. That’s not bad for keno.
Many odds tables claim better odds for winning on higher spot games. Don’t fall for that trick. Those odds are for winning ANY of the prizes on the ticket.
A four-spot game has better than 1 in 4 odds but there are three prizes. To match or beat the payoff on a two-spot game you need to catch all four numbers. That’s about a 1 in 36 chance.
You’ll never get a payout that matches the odds in keno. I’ve never seen such a game. But the odds for the best payouts arguably get worse as you play more spots.
7 – Back Other Players
Instead of playing your own keno game, pay others to play it for you. As long as they’re not choosing the same numbers, you are spreading your risk.
For this strategy to have any chance to pay off, you can’t provide the entire bankroll for the other player.
Staking a keno player is not like playing poker. You’re not betting on someone else’s skill. You’re betting on a wider spread of choices.
Three players could cover 60 numbers for you. The only drawback is that you don’t get to combine the numbers from their tickets for maximum prizes.
Conclusion
Because you’re betting on purely random events, keno bets are prop bets. It’s surely easier to guess who the next President of the United States once the field of candidates narrows. In lottery games, the field never narrows.
One reason why people play keno is they have more time to think about their betting strategies. Some keno players will never hit the roulette tables even though they get better odds there.
If you’re curious about keno, it’s worth an experimental dip into the numbers, but you’ll have better odds and payouts betting on single numbers in roulette.

Superball Keno by SED Gaming (formally Vision Gaming) is one of the best and most entertaining KENO GAMES you’ll find at any land-based casino!
Superball Keno offers players a chance to win huge jackpots by betting on a series of board numbers from 1 thru 80.
Players can bet on one number or up to ten numbers at a time in hopes of having the numbers they selected dropped by the Keno gods and winning the magic progressive jackpot!
(See Progressive Superball Keno Winning Pic Below)
SuperBall Keno is aptly named for the last Keno Ball to be dropped. The last keno ball or the 20th ball to be dropped automatically becomes the “SuperBall” and will pay a 4X times winning combination if it hits on one of the numbers you have chosen to play! For example, if you would have normally won $50 by hitting several of your number spots, you will now win $200 with the Superball being a part of your winning combination!
A related online version to pot-o-gold’s Superball Keno is NetEnt’s Bonus Keno game where the progressive jackpot is activated by forming a specific pattern on the board that combines to make the shape of a J. Read our guide on how to play keno online for more information about online real money options.
Update: Unfortunately bonus keno is no longer available as of 2016. The closest online game to Superball Keno is now Powerball Keno.
SuperBall Keno Spots
In SuperBall Keno, “Keno Spots” refers to the selection of Keno numbers chosen on the Keno Board by the player to bet on. Players can choose to bet on a variety of “Keno Spots” from one number to ten numbers like we mentioned above. Players can choose a 1 spot bet, meaning that they are betting that 1 number selected will hit. In SuperBall Keno, you can also choose a combination of numbers to make up your keno spots, choices include: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or up to 10 spots can be selected.

Many keno players prefer to gamble conservatively and they will pick a fewer number of keno spots in hope that their small selection of spots will be dropped for a nice win. If you’re one of the risk takers though you may want to choose a larger number of spots.
Of course, the fewer spots you select, the better your odds chances are of hitting all of your spots. Keno players have to decide for themselves what their preferred balance should be; better odds vs. higher payouts should all the chosen numbers hit at the same time.

In many other keno games, you can choose any amount of number spots between 1 and 20. A 15 spot selection for example, means you need 15 numbers to hit the progressive jackpot payout.
A preferred choice for me as you can see in my ‘progressive keno winning picture’ is a selection of 7-spots. In my own personal opinion, a selection of 7-spots offers the best odds for hitting the Superball Progressive Jackpot! More on that below…
SuperBall Keno Number Picking (Spot Selection)
Keno Numbers dropped are chosen randomly and there’s no way to accurately guess numbers beforehand, it’s simply a matter of good luck or bad luck.
Having said that, players can watch the area of the board that is getting the most number drop selections over the course of several drops – and then play the numbers in those areas in hopes that they will continue to hit spots in those locations of the board.
In Superball Keno, when the player hits the ‘play button’ a random selection of 10 numbers are dropped.

At this point the game will briefly pause and offer the player the option of raising their bet by exactly doubling their original bet amount, it’s strictly your choice of whether you want to raise your bet or not and you should judge this by the amount of numbers that you have already hit in the first 10-ball drop.
If you choose to raise your bet you simply touch the ‘raise bet’ button or if you choose to keep your original bet then you simply touch the ‘keep bet’ button and the remaining 10 numbers will then drop.
Every number in keno has an equally random chance to hit at any given drop, so you may want to try picking your favorite numbers to play, or what some players consider their lucky numbers. Word of warning though, don’t get crazy and start betting extra just because one of your numbers appears to be “hot” or because you think a number is “due to hit”. Keno numbers are never due to hit since every keno round starts with the exact same odds as the round before it did.
A 7-Spot Number Selection
Now, back to why I personally believe that a 7-spot selection is the best to play in hopes of hitting a progressive jackpot payout.
Download age of mythology the titans full crack. With a 7-spot keno selection in “Superball Keno” you can hit the progressive jackpot if all 7 of your numbers selected drop and hit.
As you can see in my progressive win pictured here, I was playing a 7-spot number selection with a $2.50 bet that was raised to $5.00.
$5.00 is the minimum bet amount that you can bet in order to stand a chance of hitting the Superball progressive when you are only betting 7-spots.
There is a twist to that scenario though; you can play as I was playing in my winning picture by only betting $2.50, but you’ll need to raise your bet after the first 10 balls are dropped in order to win the progressive jackpot amount.
Also note that a 7-Spot selection is the least amount of numbers that can be played in order to hit the progressive jackpot on “Superball Keno”.
