Club Keno Odds -- Math help
Okay, I just copy and pasted from the website. My question is what's the best game considering odds of winning and payouts. Please explain.
----------------------- Club Keno Club Keno is a fun, fast, continuous action game with drawings every four minutes. It is exciting and easy to play, offering a wide variety of cash prizes, with a top prize of $2,000,000 for a $20 wager! Players can wager $1, $2, $3, $4, $5, $10 or $20 per drawing and tickets can be purchased for up to 20 drawings at a time. Players win Club Keno by matching some or all of the numbers they have selected to the numbers drawn. The more numbers matched, the more the player wins. And with Kicker, players can multiply their Club Keno prize as much as 10 times. Highlights Top prize of $2,000,000 Drawings 7 days a week from 6:05 am until 1:45 am. Offers 10 different wager options Offers 37 different ways to play and win Minimum $1 per wager Kicker Just $1 more for each $1 wagered Check the Kicker box on your playslip Playing Kicker will double the cost of the regular Club Keno wager Right before every Club Keno drawing, a wheel spin (on the monitor) will randomly select the Kicker number of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10 If you win a prize on your Club Keno ticket, and you have purchased the Kicker option, your prize amount will be multiplied by the Kicker number that was selected -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How to Play To multiply your winnings, choose the Kicker for $1 more (per $1 wagered). Choose how many numbers (spots) you want to play per drawing. You can pick up to 10 numbers. Select how much you want to wager for each drawing: $1, $2, $3, $4, $5, $10 or $20. Decide how many consecutive drawings you want to play, from 1 to 20. Your cost will equal the amount wagered times the number of consecutive draws. Choose your numbers from 1 through 80 or select EASY PICK and let the computer randomly select numbers for you. The amount of numbers you choose must equal the number of spots you chose to play. REVIEW YOUR WAGER: Present your completed playslip to your Club Keno retailer. You will receive a ticket that lists all of the information you filled out on the playslip. The ticket also indicates the draw number(s) for which your wager is eligible. This number corresponds to the drawing number displayed next to the winning numbers on the Club Keno closed-circuit television monitor in the bar or restaurant. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How to Win You win Club Keno by matching some or all of the numbers you've selected to the numbers drawn on the monitor. The more numbers you match, the more you can win. In a 10 spot game, you can even win if you don't match any numbers at all! 10 Spot Game -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Match Prize 10 $100,000 9 $5,000 8 $500 7 $50 6 $10 5 $2 0 $5 Odds of winning this game: 1 in 9.05 9 Spot Game -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Match Prize 9 $25,000 8 $2,000 7 $100 6 $20 5 $5 4 $2 Odds of winning this game: 1 in 6.53 8 Spot Game -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Match Prize 8 $10,000 7 $300 6 $50 5 $15 4 $2 Odds of winning this game: 1 in 9.77 7 Spot Game -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Match Prize 7 $2,000 6 $100 5 $11 4 $5 3 $1 Odds of winning this game: 1 in 4.23 Kicker -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Multiplier Odds 10 1 in 80 5 1 in 27 4 1 in 16 3 1 in 16 2 1 in 2.5 1 1 in 2.3 Overall odds: 1 in 1.74 6 Spot Game -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Match Prize 6 $1,100 5 $57 4 $7 3 $1 Odds of winning this game: 1 in 6.19 5 Spot Game -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Match Prize 5 $410 4 $18 3 $2 Odds of winning this game: 1 in 10.34 4 Spot Game -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Match Prize 4 $72 3 $5 2 $1 Odds of winning this game: 1 in 3.86 3 Spot Game -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Match Prize 3 $27 2 $2 Odds of winning this game: 1 in 6.55 2 Spot Game -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Match Prize 2 $11 Odds of winning this game: 1 in 16.63 1 Spot Game -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Match Prize 1 $2 Odds of winning this game: 1 in 4 Multiply these prize payouts by the amount you wagered per drawing to determine prizes for wagers greater than $1.

Re: Club Keno Odds -- Math help
Keno is notorious for having the biggest house advantage (up to 66%), I wouldn't play it at all.
You can find the probabilities of winning using the hypergeometric distribution. |

Re: Club Keno Odds -- Math help
I don't know much about this stuff, I do know that this is a club keno game that is normally played in bars and such. I guess my question is the link you sent does it match the odds accordingly to the game I'm talking about?
Skimming through the link one thing I noticed is the 10 spot is a min. $2 bet whereas club keno it is a min. $1 bet. |
