| Slots Bonus and
Keno Bonus One and the Same Thing |
If you've ever had a pass-through in a land-based
casino, there is no doubt you came across the game of
keno. Whether it be a keno video machine, automated keno
"ring" or the keno room itself, casinos like to keep
their keno players happy. Sure, they would prefer that
more players stepped away from the video poker machines
to play more keno, yet no matter how few players you
actually see sitting down in the keno room, the casinos
are going to offer it.
In the online gambling world, keno also has its
place. And you might be surprised just how important a
"place" this is. In fact, what many internet bettors
don't realize is that action at Keno is encouraged just
as much by online casinos as slots gambling. Granted,
Keno isn't as popular as slots. Nor does it offer the
same payouts that slot machines can afford. However,
Keno has a very high Casinos Edge, and as you might
surmise, online casinos like it when you play games with
a high Casinos Edge.
This is precisely why all Slots Bonuses could also be
classified as Keno Bonuses. Although most online casinos
would rather advertise a free cash bonus as a slots
bonus rather than a keno bonus simply because slots is a
more popular game, players are always given free reign
to use their "slots" bonus to throw down some wagers at
the online keno terminal. For anyone unfamiliar with how
bonuses work, it's important to note that online casinos
always require players to wager bonus money (and
accompanying deposits) so many times over before any
winnings earned from the bonus can be cashed out.
Furthermore, only wagers made at specific games count
toward meeting the wager requirement, a.k.a. game
restrictions. The vast majority of bonuses either
totally exclude table games from meeting the wager
requirement or allow a lower percentage of each wager to
do so. Understandably, it's the games that have a higher
Casinos Edge, like Keno, that generally come with the
most free bonus money. In other words, the online
casinos are betting there's a greater chance they will
win this money back from you anyways!
But to be fair, the game of Keno can pay off
handsomely. It actually pays out some of the largest
jackpots in the casino. It's just that the odds of
winning the "big one" are paramount to winning the
lottery. However, diehard keno gamblers will be the
first to tell you that you don't need to win a huge
jackpot to make some profit and have some great fun at
this straightforward and exciting game. So, the next
time you're at your favorite online casino and are about
to claim the latest free "slots" bonus, just remember
that you place your bets at the game of Keno as well.
