Casino Keno To Go

Casino Keno is a bit like a faithful and always hungry dog, or perhaps having gum on your shoe is a more accurate analogy. Once you've learned the game it will follow you in the casino. Are you dining? Shopping? Strolling? Sleeping? You can play keno almost anywhere thanks to eager runners who will gladly provide tickets and take wagers to the casino keno lounge. Tipping is the custom, especially when a runner returns with a win. $1 or $2 tips are appropriate for wins between $10 and $40. Five percent is common for amounts up to $500. Use your judgment for wins above that. One strategy is to tip generously for the first ticket whatever the outcome and not again until you win.

If the constant back-and-forth is too hectic, simply write a multi-game or multi-race ticket. It's one ticket repeated for as many games as you choose. You can play dozens, even hundreds of games. The keno balls will be blowing as you golf, dine with friends, or lounge by the pool. Some people go directly to the keno lounge at the beginning of their casino visit, write a multi-game ticket, and don't return until hours or days later.

As we said before, the rules for when you must redeem a ticket were once universal but are now in a state of flux. Check before playing. Below are the original rules. Follow them unless you read something different in the keno brochure.

-	Redeem single-game tickets before the next game begins.
-	Redeem multi-game tickets written for twenty games or less after the last game is called and before the next one begins.
-	Redeem multi-game tickets written for more than twenty games up to one year after the last game is called.
