Keno rules
The Keno game is played with a traditional 80-numbered ticket
and 20 balls whose function is the same as in a standard lottery.
The player marks from 1 to 15 spots on the ticket and is paid
according to the numbers that roll out on the balls and the
bet he or she chose. The five different ways to bet on a Keno
ticket are discussed below. After each game you may choose to
stay with the same spots you played (by clicking on REPEAT button)
or pick new spots on the ticket. Different betting options are
enabled as you place your marks, however you may not mark more
than 15 spots on any one game.
"Bet"
Option is enabled once you mark at least one spot on the Keno
ticket. You are paid if one or more of the numbers you chose
roll out on the balls.

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 dollars, mark six spots and catch four spots,
the payout is ten. You would win 2 x 10 = 20 dollars.
"Bet Against"
This option is enabled once you have marked at least 8 spots
on the tickets. You are betting that none of the numbers you
select show up on the balls. You are paid only if none of the
numbers come up. The following is a sample payoff table for
a $1.00 bet.
Spots marked Payoff ($)
8 6.00
9 10.00
10 14.00

15 80.00
"Catch All"
This option can be played with 2 to 7 spots marked on the ticket.
You are betting that you will catch all the numbers that you
selected. You will be paid only if all the numbers you chose
show up. The following is a sample payoff for a $1.00 bet.

"High Roller"
Option is enabled once you mark at least one spot on the Keno
ticket. This option is played almost like the "Straight
Bet" but the payoff is on a different schedule where you
have to catch more spots in order to get paid, but the payoff
is greater.

"Top or Bottom"
This is the only option that is enabled as soon as you start
the game before you mark the ticket. You only need to place
your bet to be able to use this option. You are betting that
top or bottom part of the ticket will have fewer spots than
the opposite part. The payoff depends on how great that difference
is. The following is a sample payoff for a $1.00 bet.
Catch on Top or Bottom Payoff ($)
7 1.00
6 4.00
5 10.00
4 40.00
3 200.00
2 600.00
1 4,000.00

This is probably all you need to become a good keno player.
