Keno Myths

Learn about keno myths and some common misconceptions about this popular casino game.

Just like playing the lottery many players will stick to their beliefs about what it will take to win. For example some players will pick consecutive numbers thinking they have a better chance of catching than having them apart, example picking 42 and 43 instead of 41 and 43. In theory it won’t matter if you pick 1,2,3,4,5 or 8, 13, 17, 35, 65. Your odds are always the same for the number of selections you make.

Another common gambling myth has to do with the frequency of numbers or the previous result affecting or influencing future results. An example that if a player lost 3 times in a row that the random number generator has to ‘make up’ for the losses to even things out. Your previous bet has no influence on your current or future bets as they are all separate incidents.
