The objective
You choose a set of numbers from a grid, then a number of balls are drawn at random. The more of your numbers that match, the more you are paid.
Picking your numbers
You decide how many numbers to pick — fewer picks need a higher match rate but pay more per hit, while more picks spread the chances.
The draw and payouts
After the draw, the game compares your picks to the drawn numbers and pays according to the paytable for your chosen number of picks. Always check the paytable before playing.
A game of chance
Keno is pure chance — no strategy changes the draw. Treat it as light entertainment and set a budget. See responsible gambling tools and the table games guide.
