I find that I win more often here than at casinos. Oh well, go figure.

I win at the casinos more than on here playing Keno. Go figure indeed.

I usually play the same numbers most of the time. My wife is this way to a point. She has one particular 7 spot she absolutely will not play 4 card without this set of numbers on one of the cards. Of course you can't blame her, she has hit this three times for 17,500.00.

In a fairly dealt game, there is no such thing as 'lucky numbers.' 1-2-3-4-5-6-7 will work as well over time as the set of numbers that has won three times.The only skill in Keno is evaluating whether the casino is paying out too much on a particular pay schedule --- perhaps a 5-spot or a 7-spot ticket. And if it is, play that number of numbers until it is fixed.You can also determine the pay out of each number of spots using fairly simple math. You can find out how on the wizardofodds.com website. If you determine that 4 spot has a 90% return and a 5 spot only has a 89% return, then some would say that betting 4 spots is a better bet. (I would say betting 5 spots is a worse bet, and betting none at all is the best bet.)

That ignores the Lucky Underwear factor, which works quite well and I have the data to back it up.

I'd show you the data, but it's in my pants and this isn't that kind of web site.

Bob is right, but our minds are not set up to accept a sequence like that. An old timer and scientist I know uses only Fibonacci numbers and does pretty well.

I bet the opposite is also true. You lose more at the casino than you lose here.

Good grief, don't tempt into the Keno. I think "Anything and Everything" would be the venue.
